To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of
false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden
patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.

We Dedicate This Book To The
Memory Of John E. Sitton
John Edward Sitton 1963-1991
On November 8, 1991, John Sitton, his wife Karen, and two of their three children (Scott and Marie),
were tragically killed in an automobile accident. John was an outstanding student — dedicated to
medicine, family and his feliowman.
Throughout college and medical school, John was at the top of his class. His excellence in academics
was demonstrated not only by the receipt of several awards, but also by his numerous publications.
Those who worked with John described him as intelligent, devoted, skilled, efficient, and honorable. In
addition to medicine, John was actively involved in his church and in the service of his feliowman. He
recognized others unfilled needs and gave his time and means freely and generously to help them. Above
all, John loved his family and was devoted to them. He made extra efforts to take time with his wife and
children and included them in all he did.
John was a remarkably accomplished and caring individual. We mourn the tragic and untimely death
of our fellow student and dedicate our yearbook to his memory.
Charity
Hospital
A New Orleans Legend
Steeped in Louisiana history, Charity hospital
embraces an intriguing and colorful past, having
survived economic hardships, natural disasters
and some of the worst political and patronage
problems in the country.
Its charter dates back to January 1736, when
Jean Louis, a French sailor, bequeathed his es-tate
to the founding and furnishing of Charity
Hospital in early French colonial Louisiana.
This makes it the oldest continually operating
hospital in what is now United States territory
(Bellevue Hospital in New York City was es-tablished
two months later).
Within ten years, it became necessary to
build a new building to replace the over-crowd-ed
original structure. The new hospital was con-veniently
located between a canal, for receiving
patients and supplies, and a cemetery, for dis-patching
the deceased.
In 1779, a great hurricane wreaked havoc on
New Orleans, reducing Charity to ruins. Re-built,
Charity fell prey to a kitchen fire in 1809,
which burned the entire hospital to the ground.
The indigent sick were housed in the Cabildo
until the hospital could be restored. Five years
after the fire, a new hospital was completed with
the facilities "vast and commodious, capable of
caring for 120 patients."
A group of citizens visiting Charity in 1818
were horrified by the condition of the patients,
the hospital's filthiness and the total inadequacy
of the attendants. They complained to the gov-ernor
and Hospital administration and it be-came
clear new facilities were again needed. In
1833, the fourth version of Charity was com-pleted
at a cost of $149,570. With the arrival of
the Daughters of Charity and the Medical Col-lege
of Louisiana, the overall medical atmo-sphere
in New Orleans was excellent. At that
time, the entire medical complex was very likely
one of the best of its kind in the world.
Charity weathered the Civil War, and pros-pered
during the remainder of the Eighteenth
Century. By 1900, the hospital probably con-tained
almost 2,000 beds, while other hospitals
in the city had perhaps only 150 beds combined.
As World War I came to a close, a new war
was just beginning between the School of
Medicine and Hospital Administrators. The
worst was yet to come under Huey P. Long's
administration. Long immediately reorganized
the Board of Administrators and replaced the
Superintendent with Dr. Arthur Vidrine. In
1930, Long abruptly dismissed Dr. Alton
Ochsner allegedly because of Ochsner's com-plaints
about political constraints placed on his
attempts to build a first-rate Surgery Depart-ment
at Tulane. This feud, along with the failure
of Tulane to award Long the law degree that he
desired, quite possibly played a role in the es-tablishment
of the Louisiana State University
Medical School.
It had been clear for many years that the 100-
year-old Charity Hospital building again needed
to be replaced. Following Long's assassination
in 1935, federal funds became available to build
the current structure, completed on June 27,
1939.
After World War II, problems involving in-terrelationships
developed not only for Charity,
but also for the medical schools. The Ochsner
Clinic emerged as a large medical institution,
employing many of Tulane's faculty and devel-oping
its own residency training programs. The
Veterans Administration Hospital also devel-oped
a residency program. With the rise of LSU
Medical School, the old controversies between
Tulane and Charity were now simply extended
to it as well.
In the late 1950's, many sweeping changes
were considered for Charity and its associated
schools. In the 1960's the ugly matter of segre-gation
was dealt with and the "colored" and
"white" wards that were on separate sides of the
hospital were eliminated.
By the late 1960's, financial problems for the
Hospital and both schools were paramount,
particularly as Tulane was increasing its resi-dency
affiliations with hospitals other than
Charity. Woefully inadequate financing contin-ued,
however, and the hospital has lost its ac-creditation
on several occasions since 1975. This
threatens not only Charity, but both medical
schools and the entire medical education pro-cess.
While plans for problem solving are being
developed, the question remains: "Is Charity an
anachronism, or can it be properly funded and
equipped to provide excellent care and teaching
opportunities as it has in the past.-"" One can
only hope that future administrations will act
favorably on initiatives to preserve Charity's tra-dition
and improve on its current state of affairs.

Tulane
Medical
School
The Tulane University School of Medicine
began as the Medical College of Louisiana in
September, 1934, as three brash young physi-cians
initiated medical education in Louisiana.
Establishment of the school was met with con-siderable
opposition from the Creoles, whose
European ideas concerning medical education
stressed academics well-grounded in the Latin
and Greek classics. Nonetheless, when the
Medical College opened its doors in January
1935, it became the first medical school in the
Deep South, and the fifteenth in the country.
There were only eleven students in the first
class.Tuition, fees, room and board came to less
than four hundred dollars a year. The first few
years were difficult ones. Deans seemed to
come and go every year and there were many
abrupt faculty changes. But by 1843, there were
over one hundred students. Even then, diversity
characterized the student body, which came
from Alabama, Mississippi, New Jersey, Penn-sylvania,
Connecticut and Louisiana.
Medical school in those days was much dif-ferent
than it is today. Only eight months of
lectures were required to receive an M.D. de-gree.
The school year was four months long.
The same seven courses were repeated over
again the second year. The curriculum included
courses in Anatomy and Physiology, Chemistry,
Materia Medica, Principles and Practice of
Medicine, Surgery and Obstetrics and the dis-eases
of Women and Children. Professors re-ceived
no salary but were compensated instead
by selling tickets to their lectures to medical
students. Instruction was wholly didactic; prac-tical
teaching was given only in Anatomy. The
lectures were delivered to the entire student
body assembled in a large room or amphith-eater.
Clinical subjects were taught in the same
manner. Indeed, the unmotivated students
would often graduate without ever having at-tended
a delivery, observed an operation or even
examined a patient.
The Civil War brought to a halt all formal
medical training in 1962. The Medical College
of Louisiana was fortunate to find financial
security. A wealthy New Orleans merchant, Paul
Tulane, bequeathed $1,250,000 to provide for a
new university. In 1884, the various departments
iSne lifi^^m^«mer

of the University of Louisiana were placed un-der
the jurisdiction of the new institution, Tu-lane
University.
In 1910, Abraham Flexner published his re-port
of the ranking and classification of Medi-cal
schools, with Tulane ranked as one of the
top three Southern institutions. At that time,
Tulane's prominent faculty included Dr. Ru-dolph
Matas, a vascular surgeon and Isadore
Dyer, a well -noted dermatologist who was in-strumental
in the development of the leprosar-ium
in Carrville, Louisiana.
In 1913, Tulane boasted a School of Pharma-cy,
School of Dentistry, School of Medicine
and Graduate School of Medicine (only the
latter two remain today).
The Tulane Medical Center was organized in
1969 to broaden Tulane's commitment to medi-cal
education, research and patient care. The
Tulane Medical Center Hospital and Clinic, the
first such university hospital in Louisiana, was
dedicated in October 1976. This 300-bed hospi-tal
has enabled Tulane to consolidate a wide
range of services in a tertiary -care environment
and it has become a major referral center for the
region.
Since its founding 157 years ago as the Medi-cal
College of Louisiana, the Tulane University
School of Medicine has undergone many
changes: The most recent of which being the
addition of a new hospital wing. Several build-ings
have come and gone, and while many
different students and faculty members have
occupied them, so have federal troops during
the Civil War. Though Tulane originally catered
to those mainly from the South, it now attracts
students from all parts of the United States.
From its meager beginnings in 1834, the Tulane
University School of Medicine has gone on to
confer over 12,000 medical degrees, 147 of
which are to be conferred on the class of 1992.
Paul Tulane would certainly be proud of the
many physicians who have graduated from the
university bearing his name.

Class Sponsors For The Krewe Of '92
Ronald L. Nichols, M.D. F. Gilbert McMah
The Krewe of '92 was fortunate
enough to have the "guidance towards
graduation" of two very special men this
year, Dr. Ronald Lee Nichols and Dr. F.
Gilbert McMahon. Dr. Nichols, who
has now served in this capacity an im-
Dr. Nichols modeling the latest in legal
fashion.
pressive nme times, holds the positions of William
Henderson Professor of Surgery as well as Professor
of Microbiology and Immunology. A graduate of
the University of Illinois School of Medicine, where
he also received his surgical training, he is now
world -renowned for his creation of the "Nichols
Prep", an antibiotic prophylaxis for abdominal sur-gery,
as well as his latest text on decision -making in
surgical sepsis. A perennial favorite among students
for his engaging personality and animated, enter-taining
lecture style, especially when the topic turns
to medical -legal issues, he has been the recipient of
numerous Owl Club teaching awards over the years.
This year's other sponsor was Dr. McMahon, a
relative newcomer to the graduation scene but an
old friend to many in the class. His positions include
Director of the Clinical Research Center as well as
Clinical Professor of Medicine and Adjunct Profes-sor
of Pharmacology at the medical school. A true
Irishman who naturally attended the University of
Notre Dame as an undergraduate, he received his
M.D. from the University of Michigan, trained in
internal medicine and endocrinology at the Univer-sity
of Wisconsin and has since become widely
known and respected as an expert on hypertension,
having recently published the third edition of his
definitive text on the subject. To most students,
however, he is even better known for his warmth,
generosity and inspiring desire to live life to its
fullest.
on, M.S., M.D., F.A.C.P.
Both of these men have been not only
generous donors of their time and ener-gy
on behalf of the Krewe of '92, but
also excellent examples of diversity in
medicine. For all you have given us. Dr.
Nichols and Dr. McMahon, we thank
you both.
Dr. McMahon in "Carpe Diem" mode.

Per Aspera
This quote prefaced our laboratory
manuals which, with the three men pic-tured
here, marked our first months at
med.cal school. In a way, this quote
defmes their teachmg philosophy: to the
stars through hard work. We were the
^st class to receive instruction from
Drs. Edward Peebles, Robert Vaupel
and Leon Walker. Together, they spent'
a combmed 103 years educating stu-dents.
The memory of these men and
their dedication to their students will
remain with us always.
The Krewe Of 1992
There are 147 students in the graduating class of 1992. We represent 35 different states and
:erritories, as well as two foreign countries. Approximately one -fourth (22% ) of the class call
California home. Louisiana is home to 10% of us, followed closely by Florida (8% ) and New
Vork (7% ). Twenty two people obtained their undergraduate degrees from Tulane. The rest
3f us went to a wide variety of schools, from Auburn to Annapolis, Stanford to Spring Hill,
Vale to UCLA. One of us went went to LSU. The Tulane administration wanted a class that
represented all walks of life and cultures. This was achieved with the Krewe of 1992.

f^
The T-1 year for the Krewe of '92 was a classic
in its own right. We came from literally all over
the place, thrown together in six small laboratories
10' by 30', and were expected to not only witness
but also actually learn all of the material that was
heaped upon us over those short 16 weeks of the
first semester. In addition, this was to be one of
the last years that Dr. Leon Walker would signify
to us that "you're number one" (in a less than
courteous manner), the year that Dr. Vaupel would
launch the last of his infamous and heavily
patented "rectal rockets", and the final year that
the eminent Dr. Peebles would astutely notice
(more than once) that his lecture hall was "so
quiet that you can hear the value of a dollar drop."
Meanwhile, the Krewe of '92 was constantly
learning about each other and bonding as only a
first-year medical school class in an old-fashioned
read: outdated) curriculum can. There were many
Monday afternoons at Joe's; there were numerous
2520 Joseph Street parties to attend; there was the
tremendous Cadaver Ball entitled "The Anatomy
Awards" at the New Orleans Museum of Art
(hailed by many veteran faculty as "the best
Cadaver Ball in years"), and there were other
classic events such as the Third Annual Weber
Open, among other countless trials, tribulations,
and memories. It was a foundation and formative
experience that would set the Krewe of '92 well
apart from other classes for the next three years, or
even more . . .

Before the test
'he first two years of medical school were dominated by, more than
nything . . , THE TEST. Once a familiar friend, it suddenly became a
sarsome foe, a phenomenal force beyond our control. Whereas our
ircadian rhythms had once been governed by the sun, moon, and tides,
lur lives suddenly revolved around an even more basic (and base)
lement . . . THE TEST. Here we present the dramatic turn of events in

The T-2 year was basically a natural
continuation of the first year (somehow
we remained "the dumbest class"), only
this time we knew (albeit in a more
speculative sense) what we were doing.
This was the year that the Krewe of '92
truly found its own identity. The note
service became more reliable (perhaps too
reliable, as attendance dropped
dramatically until Pharmacology quizzes
were introduced) when attendance at the
back door of the lecture hall swelled and
many of us finally found ourselves in the
swing of things, even if it was not until
April or May for a sizable number of us
. . . Sure, there were activities such as
Quiz Bowl (" ... and the first name of
the day-Ricardo Rodriguez!") and Man in
the Pan that attempted to keep us
entertained, but events such as Bowling
Nite, the Mardi Gras "Cocktails at the
Columns" and the T-2 Talent Show were
what helped offset these academic insults
and served to remind us of our true
identity and spirit.
'} The ultimate highlight and reward of
the T-2 year for many, however, was
when we finally got the chance to Play
Doctor in P.D., which suddenly won the
Owl Club Award not only for Best
Course (we're not sure who was voting
. . . ), but also for Best Department.
Although many of us did not fully realize
that this was the last time the class would
truly be together until, say. Match Day,
we inadvertently but fortunately acted as
if we did, and in retrospect, were glad
that we did so . . .

Although a picture is
worth a thousand words, a few
things need to be said here. A
heartfelt thanks to all who have
made my medical education
possible. To those who opened
doors for me at the beginning and
believed it was attainable, and to
those who kept the doors open all
the way through — financially,
emotionally, and otherwise. You
know who you are.
A joyous embrace to our
friends that we have made here,
both faculty and students, some
closer than others. Again, you
know who you are. May we meet
often at various corners of the
earth throughout our lives. And
may you know that you'll always
be welcome in our home.
So let's go out into the
world to do happily what needs to
be done, because in addition to
being an art and a science,
practicing medicine is a
privilege.

New Orleans became a part of my vocabulary for the first time in 1987 when my alma mater,
Syracuse University, played in the NCAA Championship only to lose at the buzzer to Indiana.
Then Alabama's Pat Dye tied us at the Sugar Bowl and we sent him 1,000 tied dyed ties. Well,
from then on I could not get New Orleans off my mind. One year later I find myself standing
over a cadaver at 1:00 AM in New Orleans with someone saying, "Do you see da probe.'' Police
look." in an African accent.
The time has flown since. I've been fortunate to have a wonderful caring individual move
2,000 miles to be my wife. Thanks Carolyn, you make it all worth while. And of course, great
things come in small packages, well not so small, ask Carolyn. Rachael added quite a bit to our
lives. As if the long hours of medical school weren't enough, Rachael happily kept us on call
every night. And we were not alone, it seemed like V2 the class was making babies . . . almost
all girls to . . . maybe Dr. Shapira or Dr. Peebles should figure that one out. Needless to say it
was wonderful to share rounding, friendship, and birthin babies with our neighbors Fely, Gerry
and Mia. Mom, Dad, Bob, and my new family were always a phone call away just when we
needed to talk. Also much love and thanks to Grandma's Becky and Hannah for their wisdom
and the special time we spent together.
Well Carolyn, Rachael, Sasha (cat), and myself (the token Yankees) will probably be
practicing medicine and everything else back north.
Best wishes and success to my classmates.

Sittin' on my butt, 8 to 5 in a lecture
Thought med school'd be fun, but that was just conjecture . . .
First class of the day is somethin' called Histo.
Been tryin" real hard, but I just can't get the jist-o.
Introduced myself as Scope, she said "You're a gunner"
1 said "I got it all up here, baby doll, and I bet you're dumber"
Took her to the sleep room, she said "You're the king,"
I said "Listen you this ain't no 2 x 2, now let's do the Slide Thing"
Hanging out in lab, lookin' at this hocus-pocus-
I saw this scam with a great set of glands and I had to adjust my focus . . .
She looked at me so wearily, said "You studying tonight?
I said, "I'd rather be at Cooter's, but I'll cram with you tonight
So 1 polished up my scope, went to the lab to meet her,
I got in the door and could've hit the floor- looked up and it was Dr. Jeter!
I didn't know what to do, I was hangin' by a string
He said "Hey you two, I was dumb like you and I never passed the Slide Thing"
LA ni9¥«,
BABY!**
Up all night in lab, lookin' for some simple squamous,
We were gettin' pretty bored with this, but who could really blame us?
Dr. Rieck said passing slides was the only thing to do.
But how can you trust a prof who's a student at LSU?
My wild thing started eyeing me, looking for some diversion
So I switched to my longest lens and prepared for oil immersion . . .
Things got a little rough, it turned into a real fling.
But that's what happens when slides start crackin', from doin' the Slide Thing
Practical time is here, and we bet you're really stressed.
But you can miss up to 30 questions and still pass the test!
You'll be glad this class is over, but they'll get the last laugh:
Just when you think you're done with your scope, you'll use it again in path!
We're sure you'll pass the test, if they weren't too mean.
But you better had put fibrocartilage if what you saw was green.
Just don't ask Dt. Anderson, 'cause this is what she'll sing:
"I'll need some cash to name that trash, I get paid to do the Slide Thing!"

Third Year:
You remember. That was the year that Oct. 31st lasted 365 days
("and today, Gee ... I think I'll go as ... a Doctor!")
"That was the year we spent 90% of our time inside a hospital,
5% traveling to and from said hospital, and 5% waiting in the
student lounge for our Resident to answer his page."
That was the year we were directed to choose what we'd be
doing for the next 40 years, while obtaining a comprehensive
fundamental knowledge encompassing all of clinical medicine, and
all the time painting on a continual eager smile sufficient to
convince your staff that "Yes, I really do want to pursue a career in
interventional sigmoidoscopy!"
That was the year we managed to lose track of Norm.
That was also the year that New Orleans proved to the rest of the
country that it really is 6 feet below sea level, and exotic animals
were seen traveling 2 by 2 down Tulane Avenue.
But, more than anything else, that was the year we all realized
what an enormous mistake Tulane was making in promising to
graduate us in the not too distant future.

Though the time we have spent together has been so
short
The lasting friendships we have made I will always
treasure.
The ups---the downs, we all celebrated or suffered as
one.
That shoulder was always there to lean on and that
smile too was there to brighten a gloomy day.
Each one of us was striving for the same goal
And each of us had made it
With the confidence one had in himself or herself and
with the confidence others instilled in us.
One day our paths will cross again
And we will remember each other as we were that Fall
of '88
When we were young, carefree, and just beginning our
long journey.
And once again the friendship will be rekindled to burn
even more brightly and warmly.

THE QUriTER
When you're lost in tlic Wild, and you're scared as a child,
And Dcatii looks you bang in the eye.
And you're sore as a boil, it's according to Hoylc
To cock your revolver and . . . die.
But the Code of a Man says; "Fight all you can,"
And self-dissolution is barred.
In hunger and woe, oh, it's easy to blow . . .
It's the hell-servcd-for-breakfast that's hard.
"You're sick of the game!" Well, now, that's a shame.
You're young and you're brave and you're bright.
"You've had a raw deal!" 1 know—but don't squeal.
Buck up, do your damnedest, and fight,
t's the plugging away that will win you the day,
So don't be a piker, old pard!
Just draw on your grit; it's so easy to quit:
It's the keeping-your-chin-up that's hard.
It's easv to cry that you're beaten—and die;
It's easy to crawfish and crawl;
But to fight and to fight when hope's out of sight
—
Whv, that's the best game of them all!
And though you come out of each gruelling bout,
All broken and beaten and scarred.
Just have one more trv—it's dead easy to die.

'he total world -view of modern man, in the second half of the twentieth
entury, let itself be determined by the positive sciences and be blinded by the
prosperity" they produced, meant an indifferent turning-away from the ques-ions
which are decisive for a genuine humanity. Merely fact -minded sciences
nake merely fact-minded people. The change in public evaluation was unavoid-ble,
especially after the war, and we know that it has gradually become a feeling
if hostility among the younger generation. In our vital need - so we are told -
his science has nothing to say to us. It excludes in principle precisely the
[uestions which man, given over in our unhappy times to the most portentous
ipheavals, finds the most burning: questions of the meaning or meaninglessness
if the whole of this human existence. Do not these questions, universal and
lecessary for all men, demand universal reflections and answers based on
ational insight.-' In the final analysis they concern man as a free, self-determin-ng
being in his behavior toward the human and extrahuman surrounding world
ind free in regard to his capacities for rationally shaping himself and his
lurrounding world. What does science have to say about reason and unreason or
ibout us men as subjects of this freedom? The mere science of bodies clearly
las nothing to say; it abstracts from everything subjective.
— E. Husserl
The essential aspect of the system is now the production of rationality itself. What must be
legitimated is thus the maintenance and growth of the system itself. The scientific -technical
apparatus which has become an ideology serves precisely this end, i.e. the legitimation of the
relations of domination and inequality which are necessary if the industrial system is to
remain functional.

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without siurender
be on good terms with all persons...
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career,
however humble; it is a real possession
in the changing fortunes of time...
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit
to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with imaginings.
Many fears are bom of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the Universe
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life
keep peace with your soul.
With all its shame, drudgery and broken
dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and weary and young men stumble and fall,

Vice-President President Secretary -Treasurer

Election to Alpha Omega Alpha is a distinction that accompanies a physician throughout his
or her career. Especially for the younger physician, the society provides a forum for the exchange
of ideas, as well as a source of valuable contacts. Members can be elected as students, graduates,
or faculty of an affiliated institution, or, because of distinguished achievement in any field, on an
honorary basis. Elections in the first three categories are carried out by the individual chapters.
Chapters elect undergraduate members from students in their last two years of medical school.
Scholastic excellence is not the only criterion for election; integrity, capacity for leadership,
compassion, and fairness in dealing with one's colleagues are considered to be of equal
significance, and the number of students elected from any class may not exceed one-sixth of
those expected to be graduated. The students elected to the society are men and women who, in
the judgment of the local chapter, have shown promise of becoming leaders in their profession.
m
I do solemnly swear
By whatever I hold most sacred,
That I will be loyal to the of^ims'ion of medicine
And just and generous to.its members.
That I will lead my life
And practice my art
In uprightness and honor.
That into whatsoever home I shall entei,
It shall be for the good of the si?ll*afid the well to the utmost
And that I will hold myself aloof from wrong
And from corruptiotyand from the'. ^t^gp^tt;ing of others tok/ice.
That I will exercise my art,
Solely for the cure of my patieop and the prevention of disea;
And will give no drug not.p?norm any operation for a criminal
And far less suggest sfilti thing. ^
That whatsoever I shall see or hear of the lives of, men
Which is nq(rfit#!^TO be spoken abroad,
I shall keep inviolably secret.
These things I do promise
And in proportion as I am faithful to this oath,
May happiness and good repute be ever mine.
The opposite if I shall be forsworn.
