SEPTEMBER 2015 1 PRESIDENT’S Page DENNIS J. NAVE, M.D. Dennis J. Nave, M.D. “The ultimate test of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and moments of convenience, but where he stands in moments of challenge and moments of controversy.” — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. s I write this article, your executive council had just finished a meeting Awith Congressman Katko to discuss current medical issues facing physicians in several areas of practice. As I near the end of my term as President, I have come to appreciate the value of organized medicine as we act collectively with various levels of government, as well as the community. We have developed a working relationship with our state legislators. We have a good relationship with our county health department and its new commis - sioner. We have been involved with the interview process of candidates for the new President of Upstate Medical University. We have established a working relationship with our new congressional representative, Mr. Katko. We have a working relationship with Centerstate CEO. We have maintained a good relationship with the Physician Teamster Alliance. They have even contributed funding to some Medical Society events. In essence, our society remains relevant in our community, not only as an advocate for physicians and patient care, but as a resource to others who need a reliable resource as to the views and opinions of those who deliver the medical care. Of course, there are many issues facing physicians that need to be addressed by all of us. It was very discerning that Wallethub released a comparison of the 50 states as the best and worst states to practice in for 2015 and found 2 OCMS BULLETIN New York State ranked last. Also, to add insult to injury, a report by the Center for Health Workforce at the University of Albany found that 55% of doctors who complete a residency in New York State leave to practice in another state. Meanwhile, New York State is where 17% of all U.S. Doctors complete their medical training, making it the number one state nationally that produces physicians. Unfortunately, this means we are a net exporter of physicians to other states like Texas, which has achieved both tort reform and collective bargaining for physicians. These reforms help to deal with the high costs of medical malpractice insurance as well as with health insurance companies and their one-sided contracts. We have to remain engaged with our local, state, and federal officials and legislators so that they always hear our position on issues related to healthcare. No decisions on healthcare policies should ever be made without our input. So it is obvious we still have our work cut out for us. We cannot be complacent and silent, even if that is more comfortable and least controversial. We need to remain organized and face future challenges united. Dr. Robert Dracker Named 2015 Simon Le Moyne Award Recipient obert Dracker, M.D., past president of the ROnondaga County Medical Society and the founder and medical director of Summerwood Pediatrics and Infusacare Medical Services, and chief of pediatrics at University Hospital at Community General in Syracuse, N.Y., will be honored by Le Moyne College for his service to Le Moyne, to the Greater Syracuse community, and beyond.

The main colonies of the French (one of the powers referred to) were in the Canadas, but through the zeal of the Jesuit missionaries their line of possessions had been extended south and west of the St. Lawrence river, and some attempts at colonization had been made, but as yet with only partial success. In the southern and eastern portion of the province granted pom to the Duke of York were the English, who with steady yet sure ad- ual vances were pressing settlement and civilization westward and gradually nearing the French possessions.

  • Jesuit Responses to Native American Dreams in the Early Seventeenth Century
    DISCERNING DREAMS IN NEW FRANCE: JESUIT RESPONSES TO NATIVE AMERICAN DREAMS IN THE EARLY SEVENTEENTH CENTURY THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Deirdre C. McMurtry, B.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2009 Thesis Committee: Approved By Professor Dale K. Van Kley, Advisor Professor Matt Goldish ____________________________________ Professor Alice Conklin Advisor History Graduate Program ABSTRACT Recent scholarship on the seventeenth-century Jesuit-Amerindian encounter in New France has emphasized the cultural disruptiveness and loss of the various native groups as a result of the missionary project. Crucial to understanding this loss of traditional Amerindian culture, however, is a parallel understanding of the cultural and intellectual forces coming from Europe which shaped and often restricted the Jesuits’ attitudes toward native customs. Examining the first fifty years of the cross-cultural encounter through the lens of dream interpretation, this paper argues that the Jesuits made several adjustments to their initial assumptions and responses toward native dreams. Although the Jesuits originally denounced all native dreams as superstitious, the advent of native convert dreams forced the Jesuits to recognize the placement of at least some native dreams within traditional Christian categories of visions and miracles, even though some of these dreams retained characteristics which they condemned in traditional native dreams. Over time, however, the Jesuits’ accommodating policy drew criticisms from competing missionaries. Because the dispute centered on events in China rather than Canada, the acceptability of convert dreams was resolved first by a silence on the issue in public records and later by a retraction of the papal condemnation of the Chinese Rites ruling and certain accomodationist practices.

  • Indexes to Petun-Wyandot References in the Jesuit Relations
    INDEXES TO PETUN-WYANDOT REFERENCES IN THE JESUIT RELATIONS compiled by Charles Garrad INTRODUCTION: The Jesuit Relations and Allied Documents published between 1896 and 1901 in seventy-three volumes by The Burrows Brothers Company, edited by Reuben Gold Thwaites, contain many references to the Petun (Wyandot) in the seventeenth century, both by original contemporary observers, and as added editorial introduction and explanatory endnotes. The following text is intended to be a finding aid to Petun references. In the first section, references are noted by volume, and in the second section by subject. It is not always possible to identify post-Dispersal Petuns as such. Petun captives among the Iroquois after 1650 (the earlist known being taken at St. Jean in December 1649) are usually referred to as Hurons. When `Hurons' are clearly Petuns, as in the far west after 1652, the text use of Huron may be changed to Petun, allowing the term Huron to apply to those Wyandots who went to Quebec. Some original spellings and grammatical eccentricities are retained in quotations (which may not be indicated as such), others are anglicised through Spell-Check, or to conform to current Canadian usage (e.g. Odawa for Ottawa, Outaouatac, etc.). Other minor modifications occur. REFERENCES BY VOLUME PETUN REFERENCES IN JR1: located south-west of Hurons 1:21-22; cultivate tobacco 1:22; barter with other tribes 1:22; Charles Garnier & Isaac Jogues go to Petuns 1:24; Hurons flee to Petuns 1:26; Charles Garnier and Noel Chabanel killed 1:26, Louis Honare,enhak (not named) 1:26; presence of Jesuits a curse 1:26; Jesuits 1:26; Petuns destroyed by Iroquois 1:27; Iroquois 1:27; tattooing 1:279; St.

  • France and the St. Lawrence Mission Villages in War and Peace, 1630-1730
    IN EACH OTHER’S ARMS: FRANCE AND THE ST. LAWRENCE MISSION VILLAGES IN WAR AND PEACE, 1630-1730. by JEAN-FRANÇOIS LOZIER A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Graduate Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Jean-François Lozier (2012) In Each Other’s Arms: France and the St. Lawrence Mission Villages in War and Peace, 1630-1730 Jean-François Lozier Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2012 Abstract Beginning in the late 1630s, a diversity of Algonquian and Iroquoian peoples established under the auspices of Jesuit and, later, Sulpician missionaries a string of village communities in the St. Lawrence Valley. A diversity of peoples, whom the French lumped under the rubrics of “Algonquins”, “Montagnais”, “Hurons”, “Iroquois”, “Abenakis” and “Loups”, migrated to these villages in the hope of bettering their lives in trying times. This dissertation retraces the formation and the early development of these communities, exploring the entangled influence of armed conflict, diplomacy, kinship, and leadership on migration, community-building, and identity formation. The historiography of the St. Lawrence Valley – the French colonial heartland in North America – has tended to relegate these Aboriginal communities to the margins. Moreover, those scholars who have considered the formation of mission villages have tended to emphasize missionary initiative. Here, these villages are reimagined as a joint creation, the result of intersecting French and Aboriginal desires, needs, and priorities. The significance of these villages as sites of refuge becomes readily apparent, the trajectories of individual communities corresponding with the escalation of conflict or with ii its tense aftermath.

    Le Moyne College Senior Director of Human Resources, Diversity & Inclusion Syracuse, NY About Le Moyne College Le Moyne is an independent college established by the Society of Jesus in 1946 and named after Jesuit missionary Simon Le Moyne. Le Moyne’s purpose was to provide students with a values-based, comprehensive, academic program designed to foster intellectual excellence and preparation for a life of leadership and service. Le Moyne was the first Jesuit college to be founded as a co-educational institution. Today, Le Moyne has evolved into a nationally acclaimed comprehensive college of liberal arts and sciences and graduate programs. These programs span across the College of Arts and Sciences, Madden School of Business, and Purcell School of Professional Studies. With an enrollment of 2,500 full time undergraduates, 360 part-time undergraduates, and 650 graduate students, students enter Le Moyne from 32 states and 14 countries from around the world. An impressive 98 percent of recent graduates report being employed in their field or enrolled in graduate school within one year of commencement. A Le Moyne education encourages students to integrate contemplation and action, so they become men and women with well-developed minds, generous hearts, and reflective souls – “agents of change” who work to bring about a more just, aware, and humane world.
