Second, it is not clear that these hospitals, usually the best equipped and most sophisticated, should get the better students. Every one of the poorer students will receive an internship and those who choose to will ultimately treat people. To conclude that the better student nonetheless deserves a place in the better hospital does not follow...
...Herrick's report, which he admitted "fell like a dud." But it was eventually to have great impact on Paul White (M.D., Harvard, 1911), who was then switching from pediatrics to heart disease because a sister had died from the aftereffects of rheumatic fever. After White's internship, Harvard financed a trip to London, where he bought a newfangled invention, the electrocardiograph. White took the instrument back to Massachusetts General Hospital, where he set it up in a closet in the basement of a Bulfinch building. There he began taking and studying the ECGs of Americans, men, women...
Neither Dr. Pengwynne Blevins nor Dr. Eugene Eppinger has had any extensive private practice. Blevins -- at 32 the youngest doctor on the staff -- is beginning her career after an internship, clinic work in Dorchester and Cambridgeport, and some time doing research on artherioschlerosis. Eppinger taught at Harvard Medical School for 40 years. When he retired in 1969, he began to work full time...

Furthermore, American schools increasingly emphasize clinical experience and put students into contact with patients early in their training; European schools -which have limited teaching-hospital facilities-rely heavily on lectures and classroom work...
