Students rail against perceived hypocrisy, appreciate colleagues from other disciplines, celebrate the fortitude of the infirm, and describe memorable home visits. They tell us about their first independent professional relationships and the delight and difficulties they bring. They deal with patients’ identity in the abstract and in the system and share how their own nascent professional identities grow and conflict.
