It has been a difficult challenge which you tackled relentlessly for four years, and now have finally conquered. Over the years, graduates have been told that they are entering a world of change. Obviously, this has been a true statement, but when you recognize the potential for change In the health care system as we know It today, you begin to realize that In the years ahead, you will come face to face with a major revolution In health tare delivery. You will face challenges for which we have been unable to prepare you. But hopefully, we have provided you with the ability to be pioneers In the profession. Of course, the best of all worlds is to position yourselves In a way to effect and shape change. Be involved. Be proactive, not reactive. Be a leader In your coronunlty and in your health planning organizations. Get to know your elected officials. Be innovative. None of us knows what the future holds for us, however, it is imperative that you recognize your now acquired abilities to pursue a successful career. And, be conscious that as podiatric physicians, you have an obligation to play a constructive role In shaping the future of health care In your communities and In the country. You will be the leaders of our profession in the next century. Podiatric medicine will continue to mature as a major component of the health care systems In direct proportion to the effort and commitment you make to It. This Is the end of your formal education. However, at graduation you are embarking on a new era In your life which demands continuing self-education In order to keep pace In our fast moving technological society. 1 wish you much success and happiness and personal fulfillment as you begin your career In podiatric medicine. I am confident that you will uphold your responsibilities to yourselves, your families, your patients and to society. Godspeed! 2 EIGHTH AT RACE ST • PHILADELPHIA.

Pt 0 VtC lot Srutlwil AHav Dear Class of 1985: The memories you leave with us are fond and varied! It really does not seem possible that the time has arrived to join you in your graduation march at the Academy of Music. Let me extend my sincere congratulations upon your graduation. It is a mark of deep accomplishment that you have certainly earned. I recall how enthusiastic you were as you first arrived—for SARP, then for Orientation. We generally agreed that you were, indeed, a mature class with solidarity. You brought, as individuals, many varied backgrounds and talents. As a class you moved comfortably into your leadership role at the Pennsylvania College of Podiatric Medicine. You worked so very hard, you found ways of sharing, and you gave so very much back to us. You have now met the challenges of academic and clinical experience, National Boards, externships, and finally, the run for the residency while keeping your sense of perspective and wit in tact. You have developed personal and professional relationships; some have begun families and watched them grow. You have worried about grades, groceries, and your gross national debt! During ail this you never failed to share unselfishly your time and talents with us. You set goals and objectives which made PCPM and all of us better. Worthwhile achievements come from hard study, commitment and tenacity. There is no easy way. Your perserverance has brought you to this first step in your professional career. This is only the beginning of many challenges for both you and those of us at PCPM. Do know how much you are appreciated for all that you have been—and all that you have shared. We have great faith in all that you will yet become. There is great joy and a sense of accomplishment at graduation. I, personally, want to thank you for these past four years: the good times will long be remembered, and the stimulating differences and discussions were valuable. Out of it always came, for me, a renewed commitment and decpor relationship. You are an outstanding class. You will make the field of podiatric medicine a finer profession because of your contributions. I am proud of you. Best wishes! Sincerely yours, Janice A. Ferguson, Ph.D. Vice President for Student Affairs 3 PENNSYLVANIA COLLEGE OF PODIATRIC MEDICINE EIGHTH AT RACE STREET PHILAOtl PHIA. PENNSYI VANIA IVIOT • 2l$|62t-OtfO Department of Academic Affair 0W1YJ A. AtUt. Ph n. Acting Dr To The Class Of 1985 On behalf of the faculty, I want to congratulate each of you on the successful completion of a demanding four year educational experience. You have been prepared to enter a rewarding profession and begin a career of providing competent and compassionate podiatric care to those in need. You are also about to enter a career of lifelong learning which will require making your graduation a launching pad toward a commitment for continuing education. Without question, you are better trained podiatric physicians at an earlier stage in your careers than your predecessors. With that training, however, you must maintain an inquisitiveness and sense of observation that leads to the discovery and creation of new knowledge. More than just the delivery of podiatric medical services, each of you has the obligation to contribute to your profession, not just exploit it. You owe it to your forebearers and your successors who have made and will make their contributions to the relief of pain and cure of disease. The faculty and I wish you the pleasure and rewards attending the practice of podiatric medicine. You have earned it and we are proud to welcome you as colleagues. May the best days of your past be the worst days of your future. Good luck and best wishes. David A. Axler, Ph.O. Acting Dean 4 Achilles 1985 A Letter from the Editor: Dear Doctors, It is with extreme pleasure that we present you with your yearbook. Few people recognize the sacrifices, the effort, the frustration, the anxiety and finally, the sense of accomplishment we now feel. It is our hope that this book will for many years bring forth the good memories and renew the sense of accomplishment that is now so strong. If we accomplished this task, the long hours and hard work will surely have been worth it. We now go on to practice our profession. It is our hope that each of us achieves our own professional goals, and in doing so, maintains that sense of accomplishment, honesty, and enthusiasm that we now possess. We wish you all the best.

Best Clinician Dr. Bill Martin Best Professor Dr. Kieran Mohan The History Of The Class: Part One 1. Do the Cadavers Really Stink? Since none of the historians were fortunate or stupid enough to have attended SARP, we re not going to tell you about it. The CLASS of 1985 was born on or about September 5,1981. And what a diverse group it was: I'm from Marlton . . . that's in New Jersey, not Mars.” There were Nittanny Lions, Blue Hens, Scarlet Knights, Terrapins, Contes and other assorted and varied creatures; all about to be converted to NERDS from PCPM. And who better to initiate the conversion than Jan There's a Pony in There Somewhere Hoffer, Jim I'll be seeing some of you again at graduation Bates, and Charles Cibney Boot. Room 318 rapidly became our home from 9 to 5. Territorial rights were quickly established. Rick ‘Captain Video Groves and Mitch Hari Krishna Silverman staked out their seats in the front row. A small band of compulsive-psychotic pre-meds found themselves comfortable in the front, while the majority of us longed for the anonymity of the back rows. Oui first term comsisted of a conglomeration of courses that would prove vital to our future careers. The Secrets of the Cell and the Mysteries of the Macrophage were unraveled for us in (almost) inimitable fashion by Dr. Frank Conway. Some of the finer points of Histology proved difficult for some of us to comprehend; shown a slide of the Vas deferens and asked in what organ its contents were normally seen. The King of Porn left Dr. Conway speechless for the first and only time by replying: The esophagus. Our initial exposure to podiatry was provided by the KID from GEORGETOWN, Donnie Lyons. INTRO to NOD taught us the value of: high-topped shoes, skipping class to study, mid-morning naps and sucking up to podiatrists who might be able to help us get a residency in the future. We even learned the difference between Paul Bunyan and Bunions (like on your toes!). Of course, no description of our first term could be complete without a thorough dissection of Coach Harrington and his ever-faithful side-kick, The Samoan. We are all indebted to The Coach for: 1) Constantly reminding us how dumb we all really were; 2) But reminding us how we could overcome this handicap by holding securely onto the Pencil of Knowledge; 3) While if all else failed, answering around the fourth week when in doubt would probably suffice. The Coach was a firm believer in time-outs; he took time-out of lectures and time-out of labs. He also took his time in getting out the Em-biyo handouts. We never quite understood his explanations for the delay, perhaps because he had a mouthful of glans penis, I mean, LANCE PEANUTS. Thank God for Bob The Running Professor Boyd, without whom we never would have been able to fathom the complexities of the brachial plexus or the 6th green at Merion. Tests were administered every two weeks by the faculty: Q: What is the Velum Interpositum? A: A. 1 and 3 are correct B. Always guess B if unsure. C. I haven't answered C in a while. D. If it's not B , it’s probably D E. It's never E . you cretin. 1. A position in the Kama Sutra. 2. Exit 105 off the Schuykill 3. The wine that Judy Rae carries around in those bags all the time. 4. A sperm bank in California. 5. Who cares? Tests were followed by a weekend of debauchery, liver damage, and attending any class. Chris The Boy Ferraro proved that the admissions committee was far from infallable: 0 preparation of challenges to the more inane question. The first term was not without its casualties. David Oppenheim earned the admiration of us all by never once I did good, I did good. No mother, 46 wasn't the lowest grade in the class. We quickly adapted to the rigors of life at PCPM. Some of us spent long, hard hours plunging into our interests at the Jefferson Library, while many of us studied there too! One of the big adjustments to life at PCPM was the necessity of relying on a note service. There were two ways of looking at the note service: you were either grateful that they provided so much information to learn or you were pissed off that they provided so much information to learn. Q. What is the definition of a millionth of a second? A. 1. The time it took for Sharon Beller to get to the front of the note service line. 2. The time it took for Fran Quinn to scream HI-HATS after the overheads were turned off. 3. The time it took for Brad Toll's digestive system to make its presence known to the class following a late night at Doc's. Final exams loomed menacingly on the horizon. Dave Psycho Baskwill demanded that we be tested on everything we had learned since the 3rd grade. The class - tired, dazed, and confused amid the pressures of our first set of final exams, elected class officers. Face it, we screwed up. 2. This ain't no party, this ain't no disco . . . The 2nd semester opened with a pep rally featuring our head cheerleader, Ho-Ho. We were congratulated for our stellar performance 1st trimester, and warned that instead of attempting to cram 2 weeks worth of material from 4 courses in one night, we would henceforth have to cram one month's worth of material from one course in one night. We were lulled into a false sense of security by the absence of exams until after the New Year Things would get very ugly soon, but all we cared about was the First Christmas Party. The party was held at the London Victory Club, later torched by its owners in a vicious insurance scam. We all got ripped, and Bernie stripped - even removing his famous anatomy T-shirt for the first time in many months. 3. The Year of the Rat, and the Turtle, and the Frog, and the dog . . . You're travelling thru another di mension, a sight and sound, but of Lower Extremity Anatomy. There's a signpost up ahead, your next stop. The Hirsch Zone. If some of us thought that Judy Rae was twisted, we were all stunned by Bruce The Billygoat Hirsch. We started LEA with osteology; he continued to bone us for six months. We learned that the oblique groove on the ventral-medial-lateral surface of the plantar aspect of the 3rd cuneiform had a nutrient foramen which ossified in the 3rd month (IU). Having mastered osteology in only 10 short weeks, wre were left with 10 whole days to learn muscles, ligaments, arteries, nerves and all that other good stuff. REMEMBER THE RULES: 1. Must pass thru a metal detector to get into the exam. 2. All women are subject to strip searches at the whim of the proctor. 3. If you stand up, you will be hot. 4. If your signature does not match that on your application, you will be relegated to the Class of 1°S6. Fortunately, we had Dr. Raymond 'Father Guido DePtimio to tailor the skeletons with strips of cloth and question our Sicilian clsssmates. When we weren't studying Lower, we were slaughtering animals fot Dr. Pithkow. We were assured that they felt no pain, but they sure yelled a lot Turtles did sit-ups, frogs did clonus and dogs died. But their sacrifice was not in vain, for we learned that: 1. physiograph ink is indeed indelible . . . 2. their hearts were pumps . . . 3. none of them had Addison's 4. ... so we didn't give them thyroid. Dr. Pithkow taught us the importance of studying old tests during the Super Bowl. He was kind enough to illustrate the importance of the hypothalamus in maintaining homeostasis by gaining 50 lbs. in one term and dropping it like one of his bad questions the next. Philosophic physiology was taught by Dr. Bob Just put down the right answer Davis. We learned that by using the rooster comb assay we could determine whether or not all pro-basketball players wearing glasses were always pregnant. And so we have that . . . The highlight of Biochemistry was actually learning how we metabolized all the alcohol we drank after each exam. The blonde bombshell of Biochemistry, Barbie Fenton, titillated us with tales of fatty acids. She whipped us into submission with her endless essays. No matter how much he drank at our keg parties. Dr. Burke never turned into a raving lunatic, unlike many of his cohorts. Dr. Burke taught us with humor, humanity and respect... we appreciate it so much that we re not going to make fun of his miserable golfing performances. Gib Astral Plane' Hice saw to it that we memorized a lot of definitions. We re still not sure why, but we do know that the Axis of Pronation is parallel to the San Andreas Fault. The California Kid had a twisted way of looking at things, but he was always willing to take extra time and effort explaining that he didn t learn biomechanics at Haight-As-bury - so we all liked Dr. Hice. 4. Can you really change the pH of the ocean by pissing in it? You re looking at a Mr. Robert O'Leary, a man down on his luck. He is about to take a Lower Exam that he has taken before and somehow knows he will take again, a Lower Exam to be taken in The Hirsch Zone. 3rd term commenced with our descent into the bowels of the school. Yes, we were returning to the scene of previous crimes, the Anatomy Lab. The doors opened; 3 students went into anaphylactic shock, 2 contracted testicular cancer, and dozens were overcome by the noxious fumes. And that was the good news. The bad news was that: 1. We were to spend 11 weeks thoroughly dissecting the thigh, and 2 days to learn the 26 bones, 53 joints, 87 intrinsic muscles and countless ligaments of the foot. 2. We finally learned why they had warned us to be careful when we hacked the cadavers in half. 3. I had an arm that Hirsch was trying to pass off as a leg, but he couldn t fool me. No longer concerned about maintaining a high average on our weekly quizzes, we were delighted to score above the high 50 s. As horrible as the weekly bludgeonings in the quizzes were, nothing could compare with the stench of fear which permeated the air as we lined up like lambs being led to slaughter for the LOWER PRACTICAL. Chained doors, armed guards, and savage attack dogs were used to thwart attempts at tunneling into the lab from the housing complex the night before the exam. The key to doing well on practicals was realizing that if it looked like a piece of string it was a nerve: if it looked like a twig it was an artery; and if it looked like a two-week old piece of roast beef it was a muscle. No matter how much we studied, we all got 79's, but we learned Lower,damn it, and we have B.E. to thank for that. No description of our first year would be complete without mentioning Dr. Mike Third Degree Burns, who quietly took more prisoners than Hirsch, Pithkow and Barbie combined. When the final casualty list was totaled, several of us had 9 bought the Triple Crown, and getting to class early in order to be assured of a seat would no longer be a concern. Part Two 1. Bugs and Drugs Our final summer of freedom a fleeting memory, we returned to PCPM stunned to learn that Hollick had become Sella Turcica and thet Ed Fallon had eloped to NYCPM with Victoria Brightman. We had heard tales of horror concerning Micro, but nothing we had encountered had prepared us for the Ax Man, Bo!, SoliDziarski, and Crazy Carl. Bo More Detail Terlickiyjij opened the festivities by thrilling us with tales of cell walls, conjugation, sex pilus, and gram negative rods of lust. Bo's dynamic lectures often whipped the class into such a frenzy that the women would scream Bo! Bo! Bo! and throw intimate articles of clothing in his direction, evoking memories of the Beatles' initial appearances on Ed Sullivan. We all liked Dr. Dziarski a lot on those rare days that we were able to tune into his frequency. Dr. Axler organized a well taught course, notable for its incredible volume of material and impossibly difficult immuno logy questions. Dr. Abramson, our savior, taught us that a worm on a stick was not a popsicle, that we should avoid wading in the Nile River or risk growing huge balls, and that creeping eruptions are not necessarily synonymous with a rocket in your pocket. We all bravely risked horrible diseases each time we set foot in the Micro Lab. It didn’t help that some of us showed up for lab barely ambulatory: Look at you, you can t even pipette. Wednesdays at 8 am we finally began to learn Physiology. Lenny the Punk, Britt, Pugie and Der would remain our nemesis for an entire year. At final count we were responsible for 563 drugs and every possible interaction among them. Lenny believed in academic Russian roulette; 11 questions covering 300 pages of notes. He constantly regaled us with tales of life-saving derring-do; reminding us that he saved SK F on countless occasions, as well as an occasional diabetic on an airplane. Everything we injected in Pharm Lab died; Dr. Pithkow would have been proud of us. Pugie used advanced cardiac life support in a futile attempt to resuscitate the little creatures. Many of us became convinced that every man, woman and child we injected would meet a similar fate. Of course, the pharmacists in the class already knew better from their extensive personal knowledge of every drug known to man: Honest guys, my eyes always look like this after I’ve been up all night studying. It was left to Der to elucidate the wonders of Ortho Novum, which we already knew was a derivative of the secretions of the pineal gland from NOVO. £ ftoacar wrc | Cut it out you guys.” 2. If a pathologist lectures and there's no one there to hear it, does he really make a sound? Pathological Zen was brought to us by the tag-team of Sid, Seo and K. We were taught scores of rare, disgusting disorders, none more frightening than that which afflicted our classmate Bernbach each afternoon Marcolepsy . The course was very thorough; vve were required to either read all of the textbook or look at old exams an houi before the test. King Harold held court semiweekly. The diminutive, bearded always stylishly attired Showinoff was feared for his random assaults on the intelligence and integrity of his students, as well as his infamous matching exams: 1. Horse shit and splinters 2. Dave Shit-tino 3. Conte's hat 4. Electro-stimulation weight loss 5. Doctor Love A. Rohadur rigids B. Wise ass C. No nookie D. Fraud E. Future Resident We were honored to be taught whatever; by the namesake of our library, Dr. Charles Krausz. He showed us an astounding collection of rare slides of proud flesh dating back to the War of 1812. Holy shit1 We almost forgot The Second Christmas Party, held at Di-Pintos. An open bar was all the excuse we needed to establish new blood alcohol records. We all got shit-faced and did things we ll regret for a long time. 3. Stuck inside the Fishbowl with the Toes U. Blues again . . . The doldrums of winter were upon us. Our calendars were filled with seemingly endless array of tests and quizzes. This depressing tedium was occasionally interrupted by Dr. Weissman, who taught us all about shadow gazing and he even taught us a few more games: Find the Fracture” and Guess the Angle. Spring was heralded in with a myriad of new courses, the names of which I doubt if anybody remembers. Nevertheless, our schedules were quite full for those dwindling few who chose to attend clsas. Most of us chose to fill our time with other diversions. 0 OW nau I'll be up on the roof. It's not easy 10 training to defend my 'Best Tan championship. Still others were preparing for those dreaded clinical exams. There were three hurdles to cross before we would be allowed into the clinic. Most of us had no problem with the slide exam. Even the written exam was not too bad. But many of us met our match during the practical exam. Cowering like frighteded children, we were humbled by the neurological questions of Dr. Lemont or by Dr. Master's infant scaphoid pad. Nevertheless, we picked ourselves up, licked our wounds and eventually passed. Part Three 1. In the summer, in the city . . . The third year officially began in the summer of '83. Our extensive training in Clinical Podiatry was going to be put to the test at last. Armed with our black bags and white coats, we marched to the clinic with an air of naive self-confidence, assured that we could easily handle any corn or callous, or even the most grotesque fungal nail we encountered. After all, we had meticulously carved through mounds of wax with our scalpels; surely human skin would be no different. The patients soon became our innocent victims; the scalpel became a vis-cious. uncontrollable weapon For many of us, our experiences that summer enabled us to perform our first skin-to-bone procedures and also prepared us for future emergency room rotations. Honestly, Dr. Masters, I’ve been trying to stop the bleeding, but direct pressure isn't working. Should- I try a tourniquet? We all gathered together in August to take our National Board Exams, Part I. While some of us spent hours upon hours preparing for these exams, (namely those students who were stupid enough to apply to the N.V. school in the first place), the majority of us felt that as stu- dents from the Pennsylvania College, we could score above the national average without even studying. After all, PCPM was the Harvard of the Podiatry schools. As prepared as we thought we were, we had to admit that Biochemistry and General Anatomy did tax our brains, but ever so slightly. We laughed it off (Ha. Ha), assured that if they taxed our brains, they totally destroyed the brains of our fellow podiatry students from the other schools. Of course, we all passed and, once again, PCPM proved itself as the mecca of podi-atric education. 2. Is it too late to transfer?' W'e entered the fall term believing that the hardest years of our podiatiic education were over. We only had classes for half a day and these were to be graded Pass Fail. There was no way that we could ever fail a course now. no matter how hard we tried. However, our confidence was about to be shattered, ruthlessly and without any warning, by none other than Harvey. (You wouldn't think that a man with this name could do such a thing now, would you?) Yes, Harvey taught Podiatric Pathology on Fr iday afternoons (and on Monday evenings, when he felt like it or on Wednesday mornings if Friday oi Monday happened to be a Jewish holiday). His lectures were excellent, yet there appeared to be a communication gap between what was taught and what we were actually tested on. After our first exam, we learned a new word - photomicrograph. Definition: a cheap, obscure imitation of a histological specimen. Harvey was big on criteria. By the end of the term, we all knew the criteria for flunking Podiatric Pathology: a. A member of Sterling-Hartford Anatomical Honor Society b. Memorize the Primer of Rheumatology c. Know the notes cold d. Know the course, conduction velocity, and medical significance of Lemont's nerve. Some of us not meeting the above criteria were still confused as to why we failed; others knew the real reason. A I know why I failed. I never gave him a lozenger. Not even Harvey could keep us down We may have been discouraged, but we were not about to give it ail up at this point in time. We felt secure in knowing that we could always turn to Dr. Ferguson for encouragement and advice. We were grateful for her horse s . . . sense As if we hadn't been abused enough, images of Judy Rae flashed before our eyes with the mere mention of the word Neurology. What would Dr. Bhatt have in store for us? We soon learned that if we ever wished to have a nerve named after us, we had to take sides and, above all. we had to study old exams. I'm sorry I'm late Dr. Bhatt, but I was just reviewing these old exams. Oh well, so Gray's Anatomy would never feature D’Angelantonio's nerve, but hey, did we really want to memorize yet another nerve - let alone spell this one? For those of us who had had little sleep the night before. Tuesday afternoons provided ample opportunity to catch up on a few hours of nap time. Jim McKay Witkowski was the next best thing to Dalmane. Why, even Jerry was caught nodding his head a few times. It was amazing how much he could cram into two hours of lecture - and even more amazing how much we could cram into our heads the night before the test. By the time the final rolled around at the end of the second term, we had six-hundred pages of notes to contend with and rumors were rampant. 3. Is this chick for real? I know you have the Derm final, Ferg. I'm going to talk to Dr. Bates about you.' Lest we forget, it seemed that the days of skipping classes were over (for those of us who couldn t figure out a way to beat the system anyway). Our days were n long and by the time the afternoons rolled around, the last thing on our minds was being forced to attend class. Granted, we slept through most lectures, but this wasn't the point. We had more important things to do, people to see, deals to be made, bets to be placed, money to be lost . . . Tony, Vic - you guys up for a trip to AC? 1 guess we couldn't complain too much though, since entertainment was provided for us each afternoon, a few minutes after the first hour of class began. There would be a mad rush to our seats as the ever flightly, ever flirtatious Suzy Synapse frol icked down the aisles, pen and paper in hand, fulfilling her most formidable task of the day. Guest lecturers never knew what to make of Suzy, and then again, neither did we. Honest Suzy, I was in class this afternoon - just ask Dave Schiettino. I d never skip class. 4. When conservative treatment fails, surgery prevails. Those of us who were fortunate enough to have had surgery clinic in the early Fall caught a parting glimpse of the ominous Dr. Mean Don Green. Men fell to their knees in his presence .. . and not just to get a close up view of extensor substitution. © OTttY A Dr. Green. 1 don’t feel so well. 1 Think I'm a .. . bout tooo . . . fafa . .. faint. Before he headed over the horizon to begin a new life in San Diego, he bequeathed his dueling slide projectors to his disciple. Dr. Mahan, who subsequently put them to good use. For the rest of us, our surgical exposure began in OR Protocol, under the relentless scrutiny of Nadine and Tina. They taught us the basics of sterile technique: we scrubbed with betadine until our skin turned raw -and this still wasn t good enough: we gowned and gloved, but never fast enough; we practiced passing instruments - pity the person who confused a Meyerding with a Senz; all this in preparation for our surgical debut. Recall our first case: the atmosphere in the OR was as tense as usual (You would have thought we were performing open-heart surgery!). We had begun to scrub but we forgot to put on our masks. A blood-curdling scream arose from Tina's office and sent chills up and down our spines. We finally entered the operating room and all appeared to be going along smoothly until we dropped the one pair of sterile needle holders on the floor. Nadine let out an incredibly audible sigh, and if looks could kill, we'd be dead and buried by the time she returned with the instrument. Wre were now sweating as much as Bernie on a hot summer's day. Conplications developed and what should have been a half hour arthroplasty turned into a three hour ordeal. It was now 5 p.m. on a Friday afternoon, and Nadine and Tina, anxious to hit Happy Hour in South Philly, had begun to clear off the table, leaving only two gauze pads and an ounce of betadine. Despite all he had been through, Dr. Sanner let us close the incision. Having witnessed this, Nadine and Tina storm out of the room. We felt we d be imposing if we asked for more gauze, so we dressed the toe with the drape sheet. Well, we made it through our first case - alive, but already dreading our next appearance in the OR ... if we ever got another case! Drs. Martin and Quintavalle attempted to teach us everything we didn't know about forefoot surgery. If they knew ahead of time exactly what this would entail, would they have even bothered? After all, some of us were still referring to bunions as Bunyans - thanks to Donnie. We appreciated their excellent lectures -for a guy who looked like he'd just woken up. Dr. Quintavalle surprised us with his presentations. Rearfoot surgery was taught by Dr. Dirty Harry Vogler and the Mahan from Tucker. We learned about Newtonian fluid and Blix curves, tendon transfers and triples (or was it cripples?), ankle arthroscopy and radio-dermatitis; and, of course, how to treat the inevitable complications. Dr. Mahan always managed to give excellent, extremely well-organized presentations but would we expect anything less from a Tucker man and Boston Celtics Fan? fifiiii Dr. Mahan s awesone, isn’t he? I wish I could grow up to be just like him someday. 5. The Magical, Mythical World of Orthopedics Whether we realized it or not, we were saturated with Orthopedics during the course of the year - and we still ended up knowing just as little as we did when we entered PC.PM. Dr. Big Al’ Whitney and Dr. Slo-Hand Sanner from San Francisco introduced us to the clinical world of Orthomagic. They left it up to Dr. John Orthopedic Surgeon Walter to expose us to real orthopedic medicine. His blood and guts, do more until you see more gore . Traumatology course was an inspiration to the RD's in all of us. No one dared to question his expertise (self-proclaimed, of course). 12 Dr. Walter, I just removed the pin. You wanted 20 minutes of whirlpool therapy now, correct? No, I'm not disagreeing with you. Dr. Walter. I'm sure you know you're right, o. Is it Up and Out, Up and Down, Down and Out or In and Out? Podopediatrics was a 24 week course taught by Dr. Phil Donahue” Jay. For 20 of these 24 weeks, we were told that Calcaneal Valgus was an ''up and out” deformity - those of us who learned more than this must have done some outside reading. He lectured the last four weeks on me-tadductus and internal tibial torsion. Time ran out before he could get to clubfoot, but no big deal - kids usually grow out of it anyway. You handle your patients like that and you’ll be shot.' 8. We work hard ... and play harder. While clinic and classes filled up a good part of our schedules, we still managed to make the most of our free time. The third year would not be complete without mentioning a few of the more popular social events. There was Friday night Happy Hour at Houlihan s. Whether single or married. Houlihan's was the place to be for maximum face-time.” Of course, there was the annual Christmas Party, with entertainment provided for us by John Evans and Doug Stabile, as well as the Supremes. The Chestnut Cabaret proved to be a memorable experience for a select few on a day in January. We ll just leave it at that. The lottery for externships marked the transition from out third to our fourth years. When it was all said and done, there were a few disappointments, but nothing we couldn't handle. After all, the hardest years of our podiatric education were over, right? Part Four Rub it like you love it. 7. Bits and Pieces Rather than give us an afternoon or two off, administration scheduled a few courses intended solely to make us feel as if we were getting our money's worth Dr. Rudnick was let out of the Pennsylvania State Hospital each week to lecture on Human Sexuality and occasionally Psychiatry. Dr. Saeve spent most of his lecture time answering Ed Bailin’s four-letter words in one hour than Eddie Murphy on his HBO Special. Dr. Helfand tried his best to convey the seriousness of the present health care situation, and he almost succeeded. torn m aecaaci 1. Trivial Pursuit the Podiatric Residency Edition Our CASPR applications arrived in June and we had to decide upon which residency programs we wished to apply to, for five dollars a shot. Wre were told by the outgoing fourth year students that if we had any doubts about any program, we should apply to it. It would just be another five dollars - no big deal. Well, it may not have been any big deal if you were only applying to ten programs, but since most of us were paranoid and hadn't an uncle with a hospital wing named after him, we were forced to take out another HEAL Loan to cover the costs. In fact, many of us took out all time high loans to ensure coverage of our traveling expenses as we traversed the country in search of a residency. The residency game officially began in mid-August, with the start of pre-screening interviews. These proved to be learning experiences for all of us, as we quickly found out how much we didn't know, even after four years of medical school. The ironic part about it all was that no matter how good or bad we thought we did, it didn t seem to make any difference Programs we felt we interviewed well with gave us the ax; others we knew we had screwed up sent us invitations for second interviews. Bob O Leary’s Victory Tour went into full gear with the start of second interviews. No longer would the programs come to us; if we wanted them badly enough, we had to go to them, no matter where they were located Schedule conflicts forced many of us to cancel precious second interviews; others managed to travel to more cities in a week than they ever dreamed possible. A few states arranged to have all their programs interview during a particular weekend. We fondly deemed one of these weekends the Michigan Massacre.' The interviews dragged on and the interviewers continued to mercilessly torture us with irrelevant questions. By November, a few of us had had enough. We would no longer take it anymore. We had to tell these arrogant interviewers exactly what was on our minds. You're ugly and your mother dresses you funny.' The game was almost over. Our program rankings were due by December 10th; after this, it was out of our control. (Not that we ever felt in control!) We breathed a sigh of relief on the 10th and hoped that we could endure the month-long wait. For the confident few. the game was already won. itrrmv costi� was ranked number one at all the programs I applied to - and even some I didn't apply to.” 2. The View from the Couch For the first time since September 5, 1981. we would no longer be together as an entire clsss. While the game of Trivial Pursuit-Podiatric Residency Edition was being played, a third of us went on externships at various hospitals across the country; a third of us were serving as clerks or as servants to Dr. Weiner over at the VA; and the rest of us were rotating between clinic, classes, and the couch The clinic-classes-couch rotation proved to be better than we ever bargained for. Most of us dreaded the return to the clinic after having been out in the real world,” but we were pleasantly surprised as to how much we could get away with as fourth year students. We would sign in the clinic at 9 am, drink coffee in the lounge until 9:30 am. sit on the couch and converse until 10 am, see one patient with our third year student at 10:30 am, leave the third year to finish attending to the patient or to write up the chart at 11 am, wander through the clinic halls until 11:15 am, return to the couch until 11:30 am. and then go out to lunch for two hours, or take the rest of the day off if afternoon clinic or classes were not scheduled. By the end of three months, however, even this got to be too much. The couch just wasn't big enough anymore. 3. The Final Transition While September 5,1981 may seem like only yesterday, if we look back at the changes in ourselves and in our lives, we may wonder how they all came about in so short a time. Each of us will look back upon these last four years with his or her own special memories, yet we will all share in certain experiences transcended together. In four years time, we have made the transition from work or college to PCPM, from classes to clinic, from incompetent to accurate, articulate and awesome, and finally, our greatest transition, from student doctors to doctors of podiatric medicine.

B.A., Lycoming College 16 New York State Edward M. Bailin D.P.M. B.A., University Of Pennsylvania ' IF FOR BOYS If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs, and blaming it on you. If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you. But make allowance for their doubting, too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies. Or being hated, don't give way to hating. And yet don't look too good nor talk too wise; If you can dream and not make dreams your master. If you can think, and not make thoughts your aim. If you can meet with triumph and disaster. And treat those two imposters just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools. Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken. And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings. And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings. And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone. And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the will which says to them: Hold on! If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings—nor lose the common touch. If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you. If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run. Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And—which is more—you'll be a Man, my Son! Rudyard Kipling Bellmore, NJ 17 David F. Baskwill DPM B.S.

Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love; for it is in giving that; we receive, it is in pardoning, that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
