Charm,

You have certainly gotten on the right track with your proposal to help change the SOP at Georgetown. Some times the heads of these institutions are too busy fundraising, image polishing, recruting and ego stroking to notice what is going on inside and just assume that as long as there is no major uproar everyone is doing their jobs properly.

Why were surgeons folding boxes for the garbage?? Maybe they should be invited to the meeting.

Re boxers: Any returun to normal is great. The ob-gyn who delivered my children used to say that he knew his patients were doing well when he came in to see them on rounds and they were wearing make-up.
