A h isto ry of us is a review Of what was g re a t, and bad, and new.
Som etim es a laugh can e a se the pain When you look at som ething once again.
It should have been an om en. The f i r s t night we a rriv e d a t school we found it w a sn 't th e re anym ore. We w ere halfway through the w elcom ing banquet b efo re we re a liz e d th at the "new facility " w as not a new s e a t in the re s tro o m but a whole new college. The change w as needed. The H orace Mann building w as a nice place to v isit, but nobody would w ant to live th e re . On second thought, i t w asn ’t even a nice place to v is it. We w e re soon asked w hat we thought o p to m etry w as. A fter we had given o u r an sw er we w ere told it w a sn 't like th at a lre ad y , u I it soon wouldn’t be, o r i t m ight cease to e x ist a lto g eth er. A fter ju st a —r----y few m o re w eeks it becam e c le a r th at optom etry students w e re n 't the only ones a little hazy y B & S i on th is I l l l i l S 11 f i fiEEL 7'.',”!” question. F i r s t y e a r saw the big m ove to the new building. Many of u s helped. We soon d isc o v ere d it was a lo t s a fe r to w alk from Newbury to Beacon than to rid e w ith w hom ever w as driv in g the tru ck . D r. Baldwin v isite d the c la s s fo r the f ir s t tim e and told us th at tuition w as going up. In s ta tis tic s c la ss we studied the b i-m o d al curve but we did o u r hom ew ork in the c a fe te ria .
T h ere w as som e w o rry about d riv in g c a rs into Boston, but the lo cal c a r thieves did th e ir b e s t to re lie v e us of th is pro b lem . D r. N am ias re m a rk e d th at som e of u s knew nothing while o th ers knew le s s . We soon re a liz e d th at th is sta te m e n t w as applicable to o th er people as w ell as stu d en ts. The tra u m a tic highlight of the y e a r w as o u r optom etry p ra c tic a l. F o r som e re a so n th e re w as a r a s h of stom ach pain and nerv ous headache that w eek. But a ll, o r a t le a s t m o st, su rv iv ed and on w e w ent to the second y e a r having lea rn ed th at an o p to m e trist does do m o re than throw a p a ir of sp e cta cles on som ebody's face.
Second y e a r brought the excellence of M a rsh a ll M ark who soon becam e o u r im age of the id eal clinician. D r. Baldwin cam e fo r a second v isit and he said th at tuition w as going up. We found th at M ass College w as a b reed in g ground fo r ru m o rs , m o stly u n tru e , and fo r m em o s, often painfully tru e . It w as found th at the life expectancy fo r a m o to rcy cle w as little beyond th at fo r a c a r. Monkeys w ere giving th e ir liv es to scien ce and proving th at the m o re we le a rn about vision the h a rd e r it is to believe th at we se e a t a ll. The g re e n flash w as alive and w ell and living at C h a rle y 's. I would w rite m o re , but I’m not su re th e re w as anym ore.
*1?
T hird y e a r brought o u r f ir s t experience w ith the clinic and it w as a whole new ballgam e, of c o u rse it w as the sam e b a llp ark . We began to re a liz e th at dealing w ith people is a lot m o re com plicated than rea d in g about i t in a book. It w as a frightening ex perience to be locked in a room w ith your f i r s t r e a l live patient; som e of us w e re so sc a re d we d id n 't come out fo r th re e of four h o u rs. W ell, they couldn't say they w e re n 't getting a thorough exam . It w a sn 't the exam they d id n 't like, it w as com ing back on the second day to be v erified th at they w e re n 't so c ra z y about. Some of th ese people ju st couldn't g e t it stra ig h t th at th e re is a b lu r, a b reak , and a reco v ery . G eneral clinic w as full of s u r p ris e s . Som etim es the equipm ent even w orked. C areful r e s e a rc h rev e ale d that the new m em b ers of the
c la s s w e re not w earin g s c a r le t " S 's" on th e ir u n d erw ear. In pathology lab we p ra c tic e d gonioscopy and so m etim es even le ft the epithelium w h ere w e found it. The dogs s ta rte d com ing to c la ss fo r they alw ays found an em pty c h a ir. D r. Richmond told us about ch ild ren . D r. M ohindra told us about c h ild ren . They m u st have been talking about d ifferen t k id s. D r. Baldwin se n t in D r. W alkowiak to te ll u s th at tuition w as going up. D r. C h riste n se n 's notes helped get us through the b o a rd s. We studied fo r them like c ra z y only to find out th at the p erso n who w ro te them had failed to re a d the topic outline.
F ourth y e a r and the end is n e a r. Hockey elbow is a stra n g e new d ise ase. Some s ta rte d in July, the r e s t in O ctober. Thus half of the group g rad u ated th re e m onths before the r e s t. W ell, th e re is no se n se in alw ays being tra d itio n a l. F o u r m onths before the end of school the faculty decided that God shouldn't be the only one to have to w ork on Sunday. D r. Baldwin cam e to say good-by and n e v er even m entioned tu ition. A lm ost w ithout our knowing it a change had taken place. We found o u rse lv es in c lin ics a ll over Boston and stra n g ely enough we knew som ething. Not that we knew everything, I guess no one does, but we w e re able to recognize p roblem s and often do so m e thing about them . A ro s e tint is not so bad if it m akes a p a tien t fee l b e tte r. I think everyone re m e m b e rs the f i r s t tim e a p atien t said, "Thanks, Doc. " We re a liz e now th at a ll the psychology, p h y sics, optics, p a th ology, and pharm acology does tie to g eth er. We go out now, fo r th is fourth y e a r w as not our la s t but only the f ir s t. We now have a b e tte r idea of w hat an o p to m e trist does, but the boundaries have not yet been se t and the p o ss ib ilitie s a r e lim itle s s .
It is a t clinic you le a rn the b e st F o r h e re you m e e t the p a tie n t's te s t. No m o re A 's o r C’s o r D 's You fix a p e rs o n 's eyes to p lea se .
