PODIATRIC MEDICAL STUDENTS
ETHNIC MINORITY ORGANIZATION

The Podiatric Medical Student Ethnic Minority Organiza- Varick Picou
tion is an affiliate of the American Podiatric Medical Stu - President
dents Association . PMSEMO was established in 1974 as an
effort to promote an awareness and understanding of the
various cultural and socioeconomic experiences of the eth-
nic minority student.

As a special interest group, PMSEMO strives to achieve
some semblence of racial balance in podiatric medicine by
actively recruiting qualified ethnic minorities and providing
retention programs for its' members. PMSEMO maintains an
inter-professional relationship with other health care organi-
zations and practitioners. PMSEMO also adheres to minority
communities knowledge of the profession and the podiatric
services avai Iable.

The Ohio Chapter of PMSEMO emphasizes academics
and supplements the educational experience by sponsoring
a film series, lectures, and demonstrations on podiatric
procedures. The Ohio Chapter participates in community
health fairs and other activities which provide the opportu -
nity to increase the awareness of foot care among the
general public. The ultimate goals of the organization are to
provide to its members the essentials of a well rounded
educational , clinical, and social experience which produces
proficient podiatric physicians.

MARCH OF D IMES

The National Foundation of the March of Dimes was

founded by Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1938 to combat

the crippling disease polio . Due to the work of the

people involved with March of Dimes and the research

of Ors. Sabin and Salk, reports of polio today are

virtually non-existent. The March of Dimes did not

stop here, instead it progressed into a larger organiza-

tion with even a more far reaching goal ; to eliminate

all birth defects. The March of Dimes today includes

people from all walks of life and many diversified

backgrounds, all with one common goal of making our

society free from birth defects.

Each year the students of OCPM donate their time

and ski Ils to the March of Di mes by serving as foot

care and first aid specialists at the Walk-A-Thons

th rough out ortheast Ohio . The students ti me, Iike

Steven Gass that of the walkers, is voluntary and the compensation
is knowing that they have provided a needed and well

received service to the community.

With this in mind , it is with great appreciation that

we dedicate this page to those students and look

forward to the day when Walk-A-Thon s will no longer

be necessary.

WOMEN'S BOARD

The purpose of Women's Board is to help interested Gail Tumen
student's wives, and women students become more President
acquainted with each other and the profession of
Podiatry. Together, we combine our knowledge and
efforts to promote Podiatric Medicine in the commu-
nity. We accomplish this by inviting various Health
Professionals to meet with us and by sponsoring many
fund-raising activities.

In addition, functions of a social nature are planned
such as the "Annual Football Dance", craft workshops
and other activities that the members feel they would
enjoy. A major focus of our efforts is directed toward
planning and participating in National Foot Health
Week, which is designed to encourage public recogni-
tion of foot health and the profession of Podiatric
Medicine.

We consider fund-raising an integral part of our
program, both in donating needed equipment to the
college and in providing funds for our educational and
social programs.

Through the supportive efforts of the members of
Women's Board, it is hoped that a greater under-
standing and appreciation of Podiatric Medicine is
generated among our members and the community at
large.

SENIORS

FIRST AND LAST - CLASS OF 1978

It is only fitting that the Class of 1978 is the first graduating class to complete its entire clinical training in our new facilities, and last to
finish the didactic courses in our old dwelling. First and last has been the hallmark of our class from the beginning. We had so many firsts ,
we occassionally ended up last; or so it seemed.

In that short-long time ago as freshmen , we were first and last to have lectures at CWRU Medical School. Only an alumnus of old
OCPM can appreciate that. Ours was the first class to benefit from Dr. Chu and the last to witness Dr. Jaworek. Do you remember the
bones? That was our first scandal that started a long series of Class Meetings. The only thing we agreed on was that we did not agree on
anything. " What do you mean you disagree with that, and think we should discuss it first? " Those long evenings at the library, quiz and
study groups, passing around old tests, and then , after a __-buster of an exam, the grades were posted. Successful make-ups out of the
way, smiles returned to our faces , having made it through the first quarter. When we had somehow gotten through limb buds,
mitochondria, and the Kreb' s Cycle, we were rewarded with the first full -time physiology instructor; our first CASPR! He spent the entire
course demonstrating the physiology of coughing and expectorat ing, but some people never caught it. There was one haunting questio n
from that first year . What was Professional Orientation? That year ended on a sad note, because we were the last to learn padding from
the " Master". The vast majority of us weathered the storm , and even had some good times to reflect. Remember Milner's hats and T-
shirts?

The sophomore year offered new hope. Everyone knows that after the first year the rest is all downhill. That is what all the
upperclassmen said . We started off well. The tapes and the new class note system ended the necessity of going to class when a student
had more important things to do. This trend became evermore popu lar until , at times, Pathology seemed to be a privately tutored class.
Any of the "deadroom boys" will attest, they don ' t know what they missed . The deadroom is sore ly missed by those of us who knew and
loved her. She was a refuge out of the storm , so litud e from the crowds, and she left her patrons a commradary to always be cherished.
Our downhill pace took a rather sharp declination angle, showing us that the digits of the foot are not a rudimentary grasping device,
because that is what many of us were hanging from much of the year. What a relief t hird quarter to have only 9 fina ls! We had too many
courses, too many instructors, and too many finals to remember them all. However, a few wil l be especially recalled . Ors. Benyo and

ichols blew us away, Dr. Scott played with what was left of our minds, and Dr. Arjona gave us something to fight for . Class meetings
were never ending. There was always some wrong to be corrected, some injustice to be tried , some underdealing to be uncovered, and
some rights to be fought for. Someone was always trying to get into our pockets for the little change the bursar didn't know we had.
Thankfully, the first stormy quarters ended peacefully. A gesture of wood and metal to a departing instructor deserving such does have its
rewards; an honorous gesture indeed! Out of al l this, each st ud ent was succeeding, and a growing confidence of a bright future became
appa rent in many of us. This inner determi nati on was to prop ul se us into the next two years .

A new energy and excit in g anticipation , dampened only by thoughts of ational Boards, filled us as we awaited the completion of our

new home. Soon the old weight of apathy, and stigma of crumbling walls would be banished from our midst. The third year was our first
exposure to real, living patients at our brand-spanking-new cli ni c. The "bionic" classrooms even turned the heads of the deadroom gang.
But as success goes, we did not quite have it all together. Fearing we would end up last when the " residences " were divied up, we
sucumbed to paranoia . We submitted evidence of fraud to the atio nal Boards, and won . Let us hope our self sacrifice was worth the
battle to those who follow . We were the first to really benefit by the increase in the number of clinic patients, as prophesized by our new
clinic di rector. Because of his changes, students would now be blessed with at least a respectable mi nimum of clinic patients. On the other
side of the coin, we were no lo nger permitted to attend externships, no one would listen to our alternatives for co urses and fina ls, and
there were strong rumors that school might be forced to close. Again class meetings and negotiat ions ensued. As a last resort we decided
to boycott finals, but our " magic numbers" saved us. The ou tcome nearly destroyed us as a class. Some frie nd ships were strained and we
saw that students, on the whole, do not have much input in deciding their education. Eventually, they let us go on programs when they
were going to go unfilled and lost. It became harder to get the class together with more of us gone. It took radiology to bring us back
together . It was a common feeling of impending doom, a threat to survival. We always were ready for a good fight. Thanks Dr. Louis, for
keeping us together. We all survived that crisis and the wounded were recovering when , disaster struck again . Our probe of wrong-doing
in the Boards brought reprisals of a retake in microbiology. We won again . As the year ground down, we replaced our senior comrades,
took our finals without much thought, and prepared ourselves for the first six month seige to come in our final year. The class book was
our final testament as a group, that we were a first-class class.

In our fi nal year we faced some trying perso nal moments with everyone fig htin g tooth and nail for too few residencies. All those
interviews which would determine the d irectio n ou r careers would take. For those of us who were not blessed wit h another year of
education, there was the anxiety of finding a good preceptor or just opening cold. If interviews were not enough , each of us had that
harbinger of catastrophy; the C.O .E. 's. On any given day two of us entered the chamber, our heads securely placed on the academic
chopping block, and then slowly grilled by the three appointed axemen. After an hour or so, we were released with the thrill of victory or
the agony of defeat. Class meetings were now a t hing of the past as each senior went his own way visiting practitioners, externships, and
interviews. However, through this busy, confusing maze we were together in spi rit more than ever. For in our view was the light at the
end of the tunnel . And on that blessed morning, when we receive our reward fo r making it this far, we will be together again. And we
can leave one another with the proud feelings, and fond memories, that WE did it together, through good and bad, right and wrong, first
and last-T HE CLASS OF 1978.
