... Foursquare behind it!

3. The total grossout lecture...
Medicine Grand Rounds

Professionalism in 2003
Five Case Histories
The five case histories were listed at the bottom of this announcement; let's just say that none of them had a happy ending.
4. Pituitary Support Group
�Take a moment for you��
For all those heartsick pituitaries out there roaming around without a central nervous system to call home.
5. * SOCIOLOGY 1, INTRODUCTION TO SOCIOLOGY: This course is an overview of what we know (and don't know) about human behavior.
Well, that covers the waterfront, all right.

Good grief. This makes pediatricians sound like androids. ("What is this 'caring' that you speak of? I do not have an emotion chip.")
