Phi Delta Epsilon was founded in 1904 at Cornell University College of Medicine. Our Omega chapter received its charter from the national organization in 1922. The primary purpose of medical fraternities in our estimation, is the maintenance of high academic and ethical standards in an atmosphere of comradeship with colleagues. Special activities include: the Phi Delta Epsilon Lectureship, in which a prominent medical personality speaks to the Ann Arbor medical communityg practical examinations, which are administered to freshman members with special effort made to support academic achievementg and social activities which include the formal dance with the alumni chapter each spring. Plans are now underway to rent or purchase a meeting place for the fraternity, and such facilities should be available in the near future. These plans include scholastic, recreational, and social facilities available to all members, Rick Swartz C705

WY W' 'ff .wir-gmgzfsga. Alpha Omega Alpha is a national medical scholastic honorary society. Since its inception at the University of Illinois in 1902 the society has grown to include chapters at virtually every accredited medical school in the United States and Canada. Membership at the University of Michigan consists of twenty seniors and fivejuniors. An annual banquet is held each year in honor of the new initiates. This year we were privileged to have Dr. james Shaw, Assistant Dean of the College of Literature and the Arts, as our guest speaker. The purpose of the society is to promote scholarship and research in the medical school. Toward this purpose a major activity has been the sponsorship and administration of the Student Research Forum. This event, held annually each spring affords an opportunity for students from all classes of the medical school to present results of their investigative efforts. This year we are again having monthly informal discussions at faculty members, homes with guest faculty from outside the medical school who discuss concepts outside the usual medical school realm with AOA's and a few invited medical faculty and house staff.
