'~ teacher never krwws where his influence stups, it may affect
eternity''.
The last four years at O.C.P.M. has introduced the Mrs. Karol Jaworek
class of 1974 to a great many teachers. Some were good
and others were excellent. However there was only one
teacher who was outstanding ... Dr. Terrance J aworek.
Most students measure a teachers value in terms of
intellect, wisdom, capability, aptitude and the like. To
expound on these qualities in Dr. Jaworeks case would
be merely academic and to praise Dr. Jaworek would be
d•eaning.
A.II we can do is say thank-you Dr. Jaworek for yo:ur
concern in our education and for the enthusiasm by
which you taught. Thank-you for coming to our aid when
our pharmacology course did not meet expectations.
Thank you for the time and devotion you put into your
surgery course. Thank-you for the clinical training you
gave us not by mere explaining but by allowing us to
perform in every situation possible. Thank-you for al-
ways making time to answer our most ignorant ques-
tions or our most difficult problems. Thank-you for
communicating with us as your colleages rather than
students. Thank-you for taking this sad song and mak-
ing it a little brighter.
Most of all Terry, we thank-you for not only being the
te . h r you were but more important, thank-you for
b mg our friend.
The Class of 1974
In your remaining years here at O.C.P.M. what do you h<rpe to take away
with you? A few good grades you earned by countless hours of memorization
before an exam? A re you just here to earn an impressive title? A re you lwping
to find your role in the medical field? Will you fall victim to the disease of
apathy as so many before you? Will you take this "sad song and make it
better?"
If you take nothing away from this institution at least be aware of its
dangers and the dangers of almost any school where medicine is taught.
They perpetuate a mode of thinking which classifies morphological form but
not clinical function; they classify disease but not pe<rple or illness; they
classify clinical inferences, but not clinical observation and morbid anatomy
rather than human observation.
They teach you to apply scientific method to analyse the patient but not a
case of human illness. They make one believe that laboratory or morphologic
data can always be used to characterize the details of clinical phenomena.
If you take nothing away at least be aware that the hiatus between textbook
medicine and clinical.medicine increases with clinical judgement.
Remember that we treat patients, not disease and that patients are com-
posed of a soma and psyche; unfortunatly we often forget that.
Remember student if you are not part of the solution, you are part of the
problem.

The Ohio Podiatry Student's Association, an affiliate of the
A.P.S.A., is the recognized representative voice of the students of
O.C.P.M. It is administered by a president and a six-member board
of directors, who coordinate local affairs, national affairs, business
affairs, clinical affairs, public affairs, and extracurricular activities.
The elected representatives of O.P.S.A. serve on every major
administrative committee of the College, including Admissions,
Academic Status, Academic Standing, Curriculum, Clinical Admin-
istration, and financial aids. The O.P.S.A. provides outstanding
guest lectures, social events including the annual Christmas clinic
party and a "Foot Ball", co-sponsored with the Women's Board,
and emergency loan fund: as well as giving the student a voice in
the academic and national affairs concerning podiatric medicine.
This year O.P.S.A. has participated in National Foot Health Week
campaigns and sent representative student delegates to the sum-
mer National Podiatry Convention in Washington, D.C. A major
project this year consisted of a complete revision of the con-
stitution. The 0.P.S.A. publishes a student newsletter, "Footprints"
and the College Annual, the "Occopodian". Through the various
committees and publications, the 0.P.S.A. endeavors to provide
leadership for the students and communications to the adminis-
tration for their rights and opinions.
