THAT YOU MAY KNOW US BETTER: Four years ago, as lowly, short haired freshmen, we were the next to last class to enter the time worn halls of the Dental School on Lombard and Greene Streets. Now with our hair longer and at an average age of 25.5 years, we emerge as the second class to gradu- ate from Hayden Harris Hall and the first class to be graduating with a class of Dental Hygienists. Approaching graduation, our lines will average an even six feet and a comfortable 172 pounds. While it is true that 39% of us have gained an average of 9 pounds over the past 4 years, that really is not too neglectful considering the 3 years of happy marriage and home cooked meals that 79% of us have enjoyed. Our single members may not have enjoyed as many home cooked meals but they did find time for slightly more than 2 dates per week during their senior year. Our financial situation varied widely but on the average 40% of our education was paid for by our parents. Upon graduation we still will be in debt by about $4,000.00 and we still have a few more payments to make on our 1968 car. Most of the $4,000.00 that we owe has come from educational loans that 79% of us have received. Scholarships have also aided some 74% of our class with an average of $1,200.00. To help meet the payments on cars (27% of which are foreign made and 40% are Fords or Chevrolets), apartments and our many other expenses, 75% of us have held part time jobs during the school year and earned an average of $3.45 per hour for ten hours per week. While most of us worked as hospital laboratory technicians or blood bank techni- cians, some of us worked as ushers, pool room attendants or bartenders. In our few hours of free time we either go to our favorite spot in Baltimore (which seems to be bed) or occasionally watch our favorite sports program on T.Y. Our educational training is substantially greater than that of our parents; only 41% of our fathers and only 20% of our mothers are college graduates. While in dental school, 6% of us considered our training superior and 69% of us considered it adequate. We feel that the strong points of our education have been in Path- ology, Pharmacology and Pedodontics, while Physiology, Fixed Prosthodontics, Operative Dentistry and the coordination of the basic sciences and clinic left something to be desired. Knowing four years ago what we know now, 70% of us would have pursued the same course of study. As we approach graduation our future plans are still somewhat unsettled; 33% of us desire training in a dental specialty and many of us are waiting to hear from the Armed Forces. As for private practice, 60% of us plan to enter into group practices while only 10% plan to enter into a solo practice; the other 30% are still undecided. This is the class of 1972. 14
