Admiral Ross T. Mclntire, Surgeon General, U. S. Navy, has told us that each service is to utilize the facilities of the School, but sea power still looms as a problem for our fifteen Army lieutenants as our thirtythree Naval ensigns point over their shoulders at thirteen hundred USNR's on their way to the campus.

No details are yet available except that medical students in the V-12 program will be classed as Apprentice Seamen, but will be uniformed as Reserve Midshipmen. How closely the School will be integrated with the College program for the Navy is not yet known, but the change to a sixteen week semester will bring the two calendars into synchronism. The use of North Fayerweather as a Medical School residence for those not in the AKK house has already established our claim to that hall as our barracks if the School is to be housed as a unit.
