He's composed songs to per- form with classmates during medical school talent shows. And he's written poems and stories to reflect on his life, his patients and how their worlds intersect. But when he signed up for a medical humanities class at the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee in February, he wasn't quite prepared to enhance his communication skills through manipulating two blocks of clay. "I'm used to 'If you cut too much, you'll sever an artery,'" said the fourth-year medi- cal student while staring at his unproportioned interpretation of the naked human model before him. Humanities courses are gain- ing popularity in medical schools throughout the United States. Doctors say exposure to the arts teaches students compas- sion, communication and obser- vation skills — all things they'll need to be successful in their practices. "You spend all your time in school trying to improve and continue to improve and the OA.R problem, all too often, is that you quickly get consumed by all your studies and seeing patients," said Carlyle Chan, a professor of psy- chiatry and behavioral sciences at the Medical College who over- DON'T BE THE ONLY saw a day for faculty and stu- dents to display their talents.
