What is SAMA7 SAIXIA is an organization established at this medical school about full intention of representing the medical student through service, Since that time the Student American Medical ll years ago with the policy, information, and Association has grown to encompass all three of these objectives. Policy is a subtle thing, and we feel, that by expressing the feelings of the students small manner the organization has given influence to those as a whole, that in some policies which affect the student, Information is constantly available when the student or faculty is involved. Information as to opportunities, finances, future training, politics. and so forth is a prime objective of SAMA, Service is the mainstay of the organization, We offer a white coat laundry twhich is at present being reorganized to obtain maximal efficiencyl. The yearbook, Aequanimitas, is another project sponsored by SAMA fheaded this year by Bud Beck, Bob Dunlap, and Mary Flachl. The proceeds from this project are placed in a grant-in-aid fund administered by the medical school administration. Last year the sum of S2000 was placed in this fund. The guide service aids in informing prospective students about our medical school, and in the attempt to attract the very best, a thing which cannot be overlooked by you the prospective practioner if you are interested in maintaining the integrity of our profession. The Newsletter is also a service in supplying you with information about your medical career, present and future. SAIXIA depends entirely on your support and the efforts of your representatives. You have chosen your representatives, and you certainly have the right to demand the utmost in their efforts, Look to them and ask them about SAMA, and what the organization is doing. This year our objective is to inform you of what is happening in that not-so-distant field of professional medicine. We want to inform you of politico-medical happenings: a subject of distaste to the medical practioner but one which has rapidly risen to the forefront in our immediate future, The majority of you do not want to see our govern- ment intervene in medicine but how can we, the medical students, do anything about it? Remember, it is our future that is being decided by that vast mystery, the layman. Make yourself heard! Congressmen, senators, and the lay public will listen. . .if you are informed. Don't pass up the opportunity to have some influence on your future. SAMA as a national organization is being heard, but we need your support, and your help in fighting this threat to our profession. Take afew minutes once in awhile and find out what we are doing. P.D. Allmendinger '64 154 L , ,X ,J ,455 g Student American Medical Association
