To the Class of 2001:
Congratulations colleagues! Doesn't colleague have a pleasant ring to it? Every year at this time it's my honor to extend those words of congratulations to Temple's newest healthcare graduates. But keep in mind that "colleague" is just one of the many appellations you will have earned during your lifetime. Others include resident, fellow, doctor, mentor, and for some, perhaps professor. I would encourage you not to forget the title you've lived with the last four years - student. Your learning shouldn't stop when you pass through these doors on the way to your career. Education itself can be described as the process of acquiring the knowledge and skills for creative adaptation to change. And change you'll see; I can guarantee that. Make the best use of the training you have received here and commit yourselves to maintaining a pattern of learning for the rest of your lives. I assure you that both you and your patients will reap the benefits. Following your years with us at Temple, each of you will take a slightly different path in your careers. Even though I don't know where each of you will settle, I know that you have prepared yourselves well. Keep in mind the positive experiences that shaped you as students as you meet the challenges that you will face as practicing podiatrists. The same perseverance and dedication you gave to your education will ensure your success in your professional life. Your graduation is an achievement to be shared with the family and friends who have lent you the support and encouragement that brings you to this day. Congratulations, and may you be as fulfilled by your service to patients and to community, as has each of us who has enjoyed the privilege of being members of the healing professions. Sincerely,

To the Class of 2001:
Congratulations for having achieved such a significant milestone! You have the distinction of truly being the first Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine graduates of the new millennium, and the last class to have matriculated at the Pennsylvania College of Podiatric Medicine.
In many ways, you represent the evolution of our School. You have lived through the transition from PCPM to TUSPM, with all of the travails that are attendant with such a union. You have also reaped the benefits that the School's integration into Temple University offers. Each of you has experienced the enhancements in curriculum, technology, facilities and residency opportunity that have come to fruition in recent months. These efforts are all part of our tireless commitment to prepare you to be the most skilled and successful podiatric physicians anywhere in the world!
Now it is time for you to build upon the foundation rooted in your, hard work and the efforts of your faculty, families and others that have guided you through your journey thus far. In spite of some well-publicized challenges facing our profession, there is a wealth of opportunity awaiting you. As our population ages, the incidences of diabetes, arthritis, peripheral vascular disease and other geriatric related illnesses will increase. It will be your charge to offer these and all of your patients the highest quality of care based in state- of-the-art-science, but tempered with compassion.
You are, now and forever, members of the TUSPM family. We need your continued interest and support as we shape the future of this School and our profession. It is with profound pride and hope for each of your futures that I welcome you as colleagues.
Sincerely,

Congratulations on attaining the degree Doctor of Podiatric Medicine. This is the culmination of many years of hard work on your part as well as a tribute to the support of many of your family, friends, and associates. You have received the best podiatric medical education training available with clinical experiences that will surpass any other profession.
Our School has strived to use all the resources available so that you can truly become the most prolific and most experienced specialists in the management of lower extremity diseases both medically and surgically. Your residency program will give you the additional training necessary to hone your skills and allow you to assimilate them into a practice environment, ft is an honor to be a podiatric physician and the field needs your dedication to continually enhance and promote itself to the medical community and to the public.
Each new class of podiatric physicians takes with them many experiences which hopefully will benefit not only themself, but the profession. You have received an outstanding education and hopefully you will use the education and experiences you have attained at the Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine to give back to the profession in the areas of patient care, education, research and political involvement. TUSPM will always have an open door policy and I would hope that you will continue to remain in contact with the school throughout your careers.

Congratulations Graduates:
I am very pleased to have the opportunity to congratulate you on the completion of your doctorate of podiatric medicine degree. You have been here during the transition from PCPM to TUSPM and have started to receive the benefits of the merger of podiatric medicine into the mainstream of a health science center. Similarly, after you complete your residency training, your integration into the main stream of medicine in your own community is important for both advancing your own professional career and advancing the profession. A profession requires constant and continuous learning and upgrading of your skills. Your practice life will be filled with many changes in both the care and delivery of medical and surgical management of patients with foot and ankle disorders. In order to both enjoy the profession to the fullest and provide your patient with the best care, it will be incumbent upon you to work as hard in the future to learn and gain new knowledge as you have done over the past four years. This is the completion of just one phase of your learning. One of the most exciting aspects of your profession is that it provides you with continuing intellectual stimulation. You will also have the opportunity to develop many personal relationships with your professional colleagues and with patients. Podiatric medicine is a great career and you have much to be excited about and to look forward to; I congratulate you on completing this milestone in your life. I know that your families in particular are proud of your accomplishment. I wish you every success in the future and hope that you will always view TUSPM as your professional home.

Dear Class of 2001
On behalf of the Student Affairs staff, please accept our heartiest congratulations upon your graduation from TUSPM.
When you came to orientation four short years ago, graduation must have seemed so far away. I am sure your focus then was on the hurdles and challenges that you knew were before you and whether you could handle them. Well, guess what? You handled them and you handled them well. Your hard work, dedication and focus on your goals enabled you to successfully meet those challenges. You deserve to be proud of yourselves. We are proud of you and proud of the fact you will be representing us and the profession for many years to come.
The health care scene seems to continually change. As you enter an uncertain future, you enter with the certainty that you are well educated and prepared to deal with the new hurdles and challenges you will inevitably face. The same hard work, dedication and focus that got you this far will enable you to successfully deal with the future.
On a more personal note, I am saddened that this will be my last letter of congratulations to a TUSPM graduating class, as I am retiring at the end of this academic year. Sitting down to write this letter each year gives me the opportunity to reflect on the students about to be graduated and think about the wonderful experiences I have had with you and how meaningful you are in my life. Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of your life, albeit for only a short time.
As we both face our uncertain futures, I wish you good health, personal and professional satisfaction and peace of mind.
Sincerely yours,
David A. Axler, Ph.D.
