E.: During the past year, the sophomore class was kepi fairly busy by their professors. But these faculty members also had their funny side . It will be hard to forget Dr. Wisseman ' s sardonic cackle and his stories to go along with this very unique expression of glee. Part of the class was treated to the Dr. Morris-Gingell pathologic vaudeville team. Everyone worried as he sat by the phone that his autopsies would come up just before the big exam . We all worked diligently to pre- pare for our pharmacology Teas , usually being mysteriously absent from lab on those days.

I also cannulated the vagus nerves before I cut them. How is the patient? Master Control: All systems go. Patient is A-OK. 2nd Student: Do you realize this is the third week in a row we ' ve done all this surgery and don ' t understand the experiment. 1st Student: You would bring that up . . . and I thought we ' d be getting out early today, ril ask the instructor.

National Boards were fast approaching. Of course, many members of the class were already Spastic about Boards in the beginning of the year. After the great panic was over and all of our sophomore year behind us, we had a Class Picnic at Hank Bohlman ' s Estate, which was enjoyed by all that were able to attend.
