10 Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine temple podiatry ASSISTANT DEAN FOR INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH AND PROGRAM STUDY Samuel j. Spadone, d.p.m. Dear Members of the Class of 2009: The time has come to say farewell. You have overcome many obstacles enroutc to this day and earned your rightful places as graduates of the Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine. Henceforth you will be fully vetted members of the profession of podiatric physicians and surgeons. Please accept my sincerest congratulations. On reflection, what must have seemed like a long road for each of you to travel from orientation to graduation has passed so quickly for me that I scarcely know what to make of it 1 have enjoyed coming to know many of you and being of whatever service I could during your tenure here. Now I can only watch you go forth to make your marks upon the world. Know that you do so with my blessing and deepest wishes for success in your future endeavors. 1 suppose that it would be appropriate if I had a few words of wisdom to impart as you embark on the next phases of your lives in a world that has suddenly become all too unpredictable. Unfortunately, I have none to offer. However, I have every confidence that each of you will find your own way by tapping into the strength of character that gave you the resilience to cam your places in this yearbook. To be blunt. I'm not worried about any of you and I trust that the future will find my confidence justified. As you think back upon your student days you may think of them as the best of times and the worst of times, and they were undoubtedly both at some times. Just remember that relationships do not end simply because they change. You will always be welcome to call upon us if we can be of assistance in the future and we would appreciate you're keeping us apprised of the various milestones in your lives. Good luck in all that awaits you. May you live long and prosper. Sincerely, ylcv. Samuel J. Spadone. D.P.M. Assistant Dean for Institutional Research and Program Integrity
