PATHOLOGY After we learned what it was supposed to look like, they switched slides and showed us what it really looked like. lt was a familiar feeling to sit down at our old desks in the now Pathol- ogy lab. Nothing changed here except the slides. Dr. Soule and Mr. Robinson again thrilled us with their spark- lingly, intelligible lectures. Dr. Soule with his usual commanding lectures and Mr. Robinson with his sometimes articulate center of attraction. Again, as in Histo, we suffered through a couple of practicalsy and once again we were threatened with a drop kick to the Dean's Office if our incomparable virtue was compromised. Probably the best thing about pathology was that we were able to say goodbye to our beloved, optically precise microscopes, al- so to Dr. Soule and Mr. Robinson. :Q :S X' '15, .5-o-11 X 'J '-15 mf , EE' .4 .4 A L.
