In particular, we are interested in the "culture" that inhibits the reporting of errors when they occur, regardless of outcomes. (If there are other than anecdotal situations or settings that encourage reports, we would be interested in those as well.) We are especially interested in efforts to survey or measure the attitudes and behaviors of medical personnel on these issues. Replies can be sent to roger_brown@ama-assn.org Thanks.

The intent of this program was to link new members--particularly student members--with established, senior members of the discipline. The purpose was to provide new members with a vehicle by which they could become better integrated into the Section--thereby making the Section and the overall annual meeting more friendly, inclusive--and hopefully less alienating. The program was quite successful and the Council has decided to extend it for the 1998 meetings in San Francisco.

It should have read: phaffert@computerpro.com I also want to thank those individuals who already have contacted me with offers to be mentors. I want to thank them for their generosity and support and wish to extend an invitation to all senior members of the section who wish to offer their services as a mentor for the San Franciso meeting. If you email me I will put you on the list I send out to individuals who request a mentor. Here is the announcement once again with the proper home email address.
