The on-rushing flood of future possibilities brings with it a spirit of adventure: a need for bold. imaginative thinking, a willingness to gamble on provocative new concepts; the courage to break away from the entrenched viewpoint and the aggressiveness to bring them into reality. Wendell G. Scon V Both the man of science and the man of art live always at the edge ol mystery, surrounded by it: both always, as the measure of their creation, have had to do with the harmonization of what is new and what is familiar, with the balance between novelty and synthesis, with the struggle to make partial order in total chaos. J. Robert Oppenheimer It is a rare blending of learning and humanity, incisiveness ol intellect, and sensitiveness of the spirit which occasionally come together in an individual who chooses the calling ol Medicine; and then we have the great physician. Hans Zinsser The whole point of a university, on its educational side, is to bring the young under the intellectual influence of a band of imaginative scholars. Alfred North Whitehead Scientific problems are never disposed of by a single worker, however ideal his opportunity, however great his ability, for the questions to be put to nature vary from one generation to another. Joseph Erlanger Come, let us work, and in this little time do some new thing that no one on this earth has ever thought to do. Split from the world's eternal truth some atom of the everlasting! Then let us die. and leave for coming generations one hit of knowledge hy which we'll be remembered until some later one shall show the truth we found was but a grain gleaned from some vast store we'd hardly touched and we shall be forgot and he remembered but we, out where the absolute is near, shall smile seeing how little a beach of sand resembles the granite cliff from which it weathered. Sam XI. Clark, Sr. Medicine is a jealous god expecting to receive from its votaries all of their talent and energy. It lavishes no rewards upon those who are not fully consecrated to its service.

PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES The Study The efforts of the School of Medicine are directed toward pro- viding able students with a stimulating and challenging milieu in which of Medicine they may acquire a thorough background in scientific medicine, as well as a deep understanding of the meaning of comprehensive medical care. In a field that is developing as rapidly as is medicine, education begun in medical school must serve as the foundation for a lifelong course of learning. As Sir William Osier pointed out some decades ago, a faculty, no matter how talented, can "only instill principles, put the student in the right path, give him methods, teach him how to study, and early to discern between essentials and nonessentials." Today's student is preparing to cope with a changing world; to contribute, in a constructive, considered way, to resolving problems of medicine and of health care. To assist in that preparation, the faculty's mission is to preserve the joy of learning and to foster a spirit of dis- crimination and creativity. It is hoped that each student will achieve this grounding during his years in the School of Medicine. CURRICULUM The curriculum is the product of prolonged and continuing study, by both faculty and students, of the present and probable future course of medical science and medical practice, and of the ways in which medical education can be kept abreast of this course. It is planned to provide students, who enter medical school with diverse backgrounds and interests and who will undertake a wide variety of careers, with the basic knowledge and skills essential for their further professional development. Modern medical education can no longer hope to be comprehensive: it must be selective. Yet students must develop facility in the understanding and use of several related technical languages: those of anatomy, chemistry, physiology, and clinical medicine. They must share responsibility for the care of the patient. They must also learn how these areas of endeavor are interrelated, how the organiza- tion and needs of society influence the methods of providing medical care, and how new knowledge is acquired and old knowledge reevaluated. The curriculum includes a core experience based upon a sequence of courses that will introduce the student to the broad panorama of medicine. The principles, the methods of investigation, the problems, and the opportunities in each of the major disciplines of medical science and medical practice are presented in such a way as to help the student select the career best suited to his abilities and goals. The elective program helps the student to decide where his major interests lie. It also enables him to benefit from the wide range of specialized knowledge and skills found in the faculty. As there is not enough time for each student to be introduced to each of today's areas of specialization, the elective program permits him to select, according to his own desires, the areas he wishes to explore or to study in depth.

  • Radical Pacifism, Civil Rights, and the Journey of Reconciliation
    09-Mollin 12/2/03 3:26 PM Page 113 The Limits of Egalitarianism: Radical Pacifism, Civil Rights, and the Journey of Reconciliation Marian Mollin In April 1947, a group of young men posed for a photograph outside of civil rights attorney Spottswood Robinson’s office in Richmond, Virginia. Dressed in suits and ties, their arms held overcoats and overnight bags while their faces carried an air of eager anticipation. They seemed, from the camera’s perspective, ready to embark on an exciting adventure. Certainly, in a nation still divided by race, this visibly interracial group of black and white men would have caused people to stop and take notice. But it was the less visible motivations behind this trip that most notably set these men apart. All of the group’s key organizers and most of its members came from the emerging radical pacifist movement. Opposed to violence in all forms, many had spent much of World War II behind prison walls as conscientious objectors and resisters to war. Committed to social justice, they saw the struggle for peace and the fight for racial equality as inextricably linked. Ardent egalitarians, they tried to live according to what they called the brotherhood principle of equality and mutual respect. As pacifists and as militant activists, they believed that nonviolent action offered the best hope for achieving fundamental social change. Now, in the wake of the Second World War, these men were prepared to embark on a new political jour- ney and to become, as they inscribed in the scrapbook that chronicled their traveling adventures, “courageous” makers of history.1 Radical History Review Issue 88 (winter 2004): 113–38 Copyright 2004 by MARHO: The Radical Historians’ Organization, Inc.

  • Racial and Ethnic Makeup of Member Organizations of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations
    Racial and Ethnic Makeup of Member Organizations of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations Robin Washington and David Schafroth June 17, 2020 Executive Summary: A survey of the 51 full member organizations of the Conference of Major Jewish Organizations finds that only two groups have Black Jewish members on their board of directors, and only 20 have board members identifiable as Jews of Color in the broadest definition of the term. Of more than 2,000 board members in total among the 51 groups, only two are identifiable as Black Jews and 49 as Jews of Color, though some may not themselves identify as people of color. Of the latter, 18 Jews of Color belong to a single group, the American Sephardi Federation, whose membership is composed significantly of Jews of North African descent. Thirty-one groups have no identifiable Black Jews or other Jews of Color as board members. Three groups have people of color, among them 3 African Americans, not identifiable as Jews, and at least two others have white members who also are not Jews. The analysis was conducted by journalist Robin Washington and research assistant David Schafroth, who looked at publicly available information for all 51 organizations and 2,000 board members, including names, photographs, news articles and biographical sketches, and family genealogical records. The term “identifiable” is used to convey the understanding that race and ethnic identity are artificial political constructs with no biological basis in fact, and that an individual’s personal identity may differ from how that person is viewed by others.

  • From Black Power Activist to "Anti-Negro Negro"
    Trading Places: From Black Power Activist to "Anti-Negro Negro" Alyson Cole In March of 1988, the faculty of the Afro-American Studies Department at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst unanimously demanded that the University remove one of its most distinguished members, Professor Julius Lester. The official reason given for this unprecedented request was that Lester had become an "anti-Negro-Negro."1 In making this extraordinary demand, Lester's colleagues were reacting to the recent publication of his autobiography. En­ titled Loves ong: On Becoming a Jew (1988a), the book tells the story of Lester's conversion to Judaism and details his growing alienation from Black politics. The faculty's lengthy report concluded, "Professor Lester would be infinitely more comfortable at a different location in the University" (Lester 1988b, 17- 8).2 Elaborating on the written account, one of the authors pointedly remarked that retaining Lester in Afro-American Studies is "like having Yassir Arafat teach­ ing in the Jewish Studies Department."3 The University eventually complied with the request and transferred Professor Lester to another department. This bit of academic infighting soon became national news.4 Journalists reminded their readers that back in the late 1960s, when he was a prominent Black Power activist, Lester gained notoriety as an anti-Semite. The Los Ange­ les Times maintained that now Lester was himself a victim of anti-Semitism.5 Despite the University's intervention, or perhaps because of it, the scandal re­ fused to die. Lester himself contributed to the prolonged life of this affair by 0026-3079/2003/4403-037S2.50/0 American Studies, 44:3 (Fall 2003): 37-76 37 38 Alyson Cole rehashing events and responding to his detractors in published articles and pub­ lic lectures.6 More significant still, conservative critics enthusiastically seized upon the story of Lester's excommunication.
