Colleges need to be required to co-sign student loans.

The quality of the education provided and of the graduates will increase.

Looking back on my career, now at 40 years of experience, I often reflect on how much more efficiency, scale, and profitability would have been gained if I had a team of degreed professionals in Africana studies….

For example, the University of Texas at Austin Dell Medical School offers a “Developing Outstanding Clinical Skills” program that teaches students to embrace “weight inclusivity,” arguing that weight-loss strategies foster a “culture of shame.” Students are also instructed to avoid terms such as “overweight” or “obese.”

How about "alcoholism inclusivity" or "tobacco inclusivity"? After all, those poor people shouldn't be shamed for being unable to control their habits. Never mind the adverse health effects; it's much more important that they feel good about themselves.

Another reason why I gravitate...strongly...toward physicians who have white hair.

"With quality education taking a backseat to a radical agenda, it’s hardly surprising that in the real world, a January survey found that 24% of hiring managers believe recent college graduates are unprepared for the workforce, 33% cite a lack of work ethic, and 29% see them as entitled. Additionally, 27% believe recent graduates are easily offended, and 25% say they don’t respond well to feedback. "

Less so now that Millenials are 29-44 and have either found a career or foundered altogether. That group underneath can hold a job.

Astonishing. I posted this back in 2020, and it appalls me just as much now to read this as it did back then:

"...On a related note, a lot of medical schools no longer subscribe to the Hippocratic Oath or have new MDs take it..."

Oh, how I wish that were true. If they trashed the old one and didn't require them to take an oath of any kind, it might be less damaging.

But the NEW oaths many are taking are disgusting:


University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine Class of 2024 Oath

As the entering class of 2020, we start our medical journey amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and a national civil rights movement reinvigorated by the killings of Breonna Taylor, George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery. We honor the 700,000+ lives lost to COVID-19, despite the sacrifices of health care workers.

We recognize the fundamental failings of our health care and political systems in serving vulnerable communities. This oath is the first step in our enduring commitment to repairing the injustices against those historically ignored and abused in medicine: Black patients, Indigenous patients, Patients of Color and all marginalized populations who have received substandard care as a result of their identity and limited resources.

Acknowledging the privilege and responsibility that come with being a physician, I take this oath as a call to action to fulfill my duty to patients, to the medical profession and to society.

Thereby, I pledge as a physician and lifelong student of medicine:

I will support and collaborate with my colleagues across disciplines and professions, while respecting the patient’s vital role on the health care team.

I will honor my physical, mental and emotional health so as to not lessen the quality of care I provide.

I will carry on the legacy of my predecessors by mentoring the next generation of diverse physicians.

I will recognize the pivotal role of ethical research in the advancement of medicine and commit myself to endless scholarship with the ultimate goal of improving patient care.

I will care for my patients’ holistic well-being, not solely their pathology. With empathy, compassion and humility, I will prioritize understanding each patient’s narrative, background and experiences while protecting privacy and autonomy.

I will champion diversity in both medicine and society, and promote an inclusive environment by respecting the perspectives of others and relentlessly seeking to identify and eliminate my personal biases.

I will be an ally to those of low socioeconomic status, the BIPOC community, the LGBTQIA+ community, womxn/women, differently-abled individuals and other underserved groups in order to dismantle the systemic racism and prejudice that medical professionals and society have perpetuated.

I will educate myself on social determinants of health in order to use my voice as a physician to advocate for a more equitable health care system from the local to the global level.

I will restore trust between the health care community and the population in which I serve by holding myself and others accountable, and by combating misinformation in order to improve health literacy.

In making this oath, I embrace the ever-changing responsibilities of being a physician and pledge to uphold the integrity of the profession in the clinic and beyond.

'Students are also instructed to avoid terms such as “overweight” or “obese.”'

I agree. I prefer fat.

The Left simply looks for new ways to destroy America, at all times, and in all places. It is constant, pervasive, and never-ending. Death by 63 million cuts.

'DEI offices now use kinder and gentler monikers like “Student Success,” “Well-Being,” and “Access and Opportunity.”'

Newspeak. Groupthink.

Contempt for truth, truth for its own sake, is the evil most fundamental to the Decadence of Western Civilization.
