WGW: January 22nd, 2020

Every week I send out an update to the medical school, which gets send out as part of WGW (What's Good Wednesday), an email where the associate deans of students compiles the professional and academic accomplishments and life events of the student body in an effort to help keep us connected even though we are spread out across lecture halls, campuses, and hospitals across the state. Usually populated by sporadic submissions of significance, after talking with friends before I left, I decided to twist the format to suit my needs to stay connected to my class. After the fifth week of consistent submission, my update was given it's own special place and title: Kassel's Corner. 

Hello from the UK! Kassel Galaty (Med21?) is still living that sweet, sweet sabbatical life, and, now that Med20 is transitioning to residency, she is starting to accept that she may in fact be a Med21. The term has really, truly started and with it lectures! This week has been filled with topics like the "Pathologizing of Sexual Deviance: A History," "Decolonization of Science," and "The History of Science and Modernity." Once again she has an essay due Monday so send good philosophical  vibes and karma her way. During her studies she came across one a rather compelling essay on bioethics: 


Between the lectures and the writing she hasn't done much in the way of fun, but she is still rowing, which means she's up by the time the sun rises. Enjoy these pictures of the sunrise. They may not be a view from the aerial tram, but they're not bad. 



Cheers!

Kassel Galaty (Med20/21) continues her transatlantic research. As hoped, she was able to actually do London things while in London this time and can confirm that the reports are true--there are things outside of the National Archives. She scored cheap seats to the N...

After the fifth week of consistent submission, my update was given it's own special place and title: Kassel's Corner.  Kassel Galaty (med20forlife) has been in Cambridge for a full month! This last week has been less travel- and activity-filled, and more lecture- and historical-fact-filled. She joined the Downing College rowing team and finally made it out on the water--the boat didn't tip over, no one fell in, ...
