Index
The Tulane University School ofMedicinebegan
as the Medical College of Louisiana in September of
1 834. 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, room,
and board came to less than fourhundred dollars per
year. Professors received no salary but were instead
compensated by selling tickets to their lectures to the
medical students.
The Civil War brought a halt to all medical
training in 1 862 . The Medical College of Louisiana
was fortunate to find financial security. Paul
Tulane, a wealthy New Orleans merchant,
bequeathed $1,250,000 to provide for a new University. By 1884 the
various departments of the Medical College united under the jurisdic-tion
of a new institution, Tulane University. In the early twentieth
century Tulane's prominent faculty included Dr. Rudolph Matas, a
vascular surgeon, and Dr. Isadore Dyer, a well-noted dermatologistwhowas
instrumental in the development of the leprosarium in Carville, Louisiana
.
Since its founding 1 63 years ago, as the Medical College of Louisiana, the
Tulane University Medical School hasundergonemanychanges. TheTulane
Medical Center was organized in 1 969 to broaden Tulane's commitment to
medical education, research, and patient care. Later, the Tulane Medical
Center Hospital and Clinic opened, becoming the first
such university hospital in Louisiana. This 300-bed
hospital has become a major referral center for tertiary
care in the region. Recently, a portion of the hospital
was sold to Columbia HCA. Charity Hospital has also
changed, transferring many of the clinical departments
to University Hospital.

" Attitudes are more important that
abilities, motives than methods, character
than cleverness, perseverance than power,
and the heart always takes precedence over
the head."
- Denis Burkitt (of Burkitt's lymphoma
fame)
"Do not lay up for yourselves an earthly
treasure. ..Remember where your treasure is,
there your heart is also. ..No man can serve
two masters."
- Matthew 6:19-25
The Dilemna
To laugh is to risk appearing a fool.
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out for another is to risk
involvement.
To expose feelings is to risk rejection.
To place your dreams before the crowd is to
risk ridicule.
To love is to risk not being loved in return.
To go forward in the face of overwhelming
odds is to risk failure.
But risks must be taken because the greatest
hazard in life is to risk nothing. People who
risk nothing do nothing, have nothing. They
may avoid suffering ami sorrow but they
cannot learn, feel, change, grow or love.
Chained by their certitudes, they arc slaves
and have forfeited their freedom. Only a
person who risks is truly free.

Believing in yourself...
Ifyou put truth above your own desires
And value those asfriends who feel the same.
Ifyou take pride in things that you 've
accomplished.
And when you 're wrong, stand up and take the
blame...
Ifyou can listen to those who would advise you
And then judge for yourselfjust what is right.
Ifyou can keep in truth with all about you
And settle differences without a fight...
Ifyou can find delight in simple pleasures
And see the rainbow and not the falling rain.
Ifyou can lose and NEVER, give up trying,
Believing that there's nothing done in vain...
Ifyou can firmly stand by your convictions
And not let others set your goals for you,
Ifyou can be as practical as needed
And still remember sometimes dreams come
true...
Ifyou can live life that you believe in
And trust yourjudgement and maturity
Then you 'II be happy and successful
And the worthwhile person, you are meant to
be.

TAKE TIME
Take time to think...
It is the source of power
.
Take time to play...
It is the secret of perpetual youth.
Take time to read. .
.
It is the fountain of wisdom.
Take time to pray. .
.
It is the greatest power on earth.
Take time to love and be loved..
.
It is a god-givenprivilege.
Take time to be friendly. .
.
It is the road to happiness.
Take time to laugh...
It is the music of the soul.
Take time to give . .
.
It is too short a day to be selfish.
Take time to work. .
.
It is the price of success.
Take time to do charity. .
.
It is the key to heaven.

Monet Refuses the Operation
Doctor, you say there are no haloes
around the streetlights in Paris and what
I see is an aberra tion caused by old age,
an affliction. I tell you it has taken me
all my life to arrive at the vision of gas
lamps as angels, to soften and blur and
finally banish the edges you regret I
don't see, to learn that the line I called
the horizon does not exist and sky and
water, so long apart, are the same state
ofbeing. Fifty-four years before I could
see Rouen cathedral is built of parallel
shafts of sun, and now you want to
restoremyyouthful errors: fixed
notions of top and bottom, the illusion
of three-dimensional space, wisteria
separa te from thebridge it covers. What
can I say to convince you the Houses of
Parliament dissolve night after night to
become the fluid dream of the Thames?
I will not return to a universe of objects
that don' t know each other, as if islands
were not the lost children of one great
continent. The world is flux, and light
becomes what i t touches, becomes
water, lilies on water, above and below
water,becomes lilac and mauveand
yellow and white and cerulean lamps,
small fists passing sunlight so quickly to
one another that it would take long,
streaming hair insidemybrush to catch
it. To paint the speed of light! Our
weighted shapes, these verticals,burn to
mix with air and change our bones, skin,
clothes to gases. Doctor, if only you
could seehow heaven pulls earth into its
arms and howinfinitely the heart
expands to claim this world, blue vapor
without end.

Finally brethren, whatever is true,
whatever is honorable, whatever is
just, whatever is pure, whatever is
lovely, whatever is gracious, if there
is any excellence in it, if there is
anything worthy of praise, think
about these things.
- Paul's letter to the Philippeans 4:8
Then so live that you may ever look
every man in the face and see the
reflection of your God. For the soul of
every man is the image of thy maker.

" I love thee, O lord, my strength,
The Lord is my rock, and my fortress,
and my deliverer, my God, my rock,
in whom I take my refuge, my
shield, and the horn of my salvation,
my stronghold.
1 call upon the Lord, who is worthy
to be praised."
(Psalms 18:1-3)
"..in all these things we are more than
conquererors through Him who loved
us. For I am sure that neither death,
nor life, nor angels, nor principalities,
nor things present, nor things to
come, nor powers, nor height, nor
depth, nor anything else hi all
creation, will be able to separate us
from the love of God in Christ Jesus
our Lord."
(Romans 8:37-39)
" Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God
Almighty, who was and is and is to
come
(Revelations 4:8)

To my family,
thank you for your endless
support and encouragement.
I cannot begin to imagine,
where I would be without you.
Thank you for teaching me
to always dream and instilling
in me the determination
to make my dreams come true.
A man is not given a dream,
without also being given the
power to make it a reality.

"Give the physician his place, for the Lord created
him; let him not leave you, for there is need of him.
There are times when success lies in the
physician's hands, and he too beseeches God that
his diagnosis may be correct and his treatment
brings about a cure." - Sirach 38: 12-14.

Samuel Ogresta
To My Son, from the works of Emerson on the
measure of success: "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."

society for times immemorial. In addition to
providing medical care, physicians also provide
comfort, trust and hope. In recent years these last

Vision.
To see clearly what is needed to succeed . . .
this is vision.
The world is rapidly changing. The
healthcare industry has seen the advent of
managed care and an age of limitations.
Under intense pressures to conserve, only
the most resourceful and creative companies
will survive.
But at the same time, international
markets appear and create new
opportunities for growth. Worldwide
communications magnify the strength that
is available through diversification. Global
thinking leads to unexpected synergies
and economies. Where the flow of
creativity is constricted, vision seeks out
new avenues of success.
Vision does not see part; it sees all.

Introducing the newly redesigned
Infiniti® Q45t® for 1999. The
thinking behind it: Why stop at

Load it with amenities like an

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
You're always telling your patients prevention is the key to good health. Good diet and regular exercise
may prevent invasive procedures later in life and can shorten recovery time. The same is true for your
practice. Good risk management may prevent lawsuits from ever occurring—and if you are sued, risk
management can help you become highly defensible.
Additionally, LAMMICO Risk Management Premium Discount Program credits are worth 10
percent off physicians' next year's basic limits premium. LAMMICO offers insureds risk
management training every year—and if you earn two credits through attendance at such training,
you earn a 10 percent discount off your next year's basic limits premium. This year, the focus of
our programs is on office staff and corporate compliance. Some LAMMICO programs qualify tor
continuing medical education (CME) credits or continuing education units (CEU).
LAMMICO is unlike any other medical professional liability carrier, and our risk
management opportunities for insureds are only one example. For more about
our commitment to health care practitioners, contact LAMMICO today.
