Foreword To sum up four years in only one volume is a Herculean task for an ordinary person. How- ever, for the past four years we have found, much to our amazement, that we are surrounded by and have eventually become unordinary peo- ple. Through our rigourous training, both of soma and psyche, we have left the common hoard of those who sleep, eat, and live as homo sapiens and have joined the world ' s oldest and largest fraternity, the Medical Profession. We have now entered into a new realm of living (for want of a better adjective) uncertain hours, indefinite personal schedules, inadequate sleep, and the most rewarding and fulfilling life possi- ble. Thus, after four long years, which passed all too rapidly, we find ourselves to be physicians; healers of the ill, consolers to the unconsolable, and prescribers of remedies to the multitude. Thus we have decided to dedicate this an- thology, the survey of the making of a physician, to the raw material which is the human clay molded into a new being after four years. We dedicate this yearbook to the unsung, but often upbraided hero of this saga, the medical student. In the pages to follow, the message between the lines and deep within the pictures, is ac- knowledgement and gratitude for the effort extended to help us reach our goal; a goal which means so many different things to different people, but which is summarized in the oath we take and follow, and most succinctly in the degree we are so proud to now hold, doctor of MEDICINE.
