Molnar, Eva T.; Armstead, Dorothy

Journal of Medical Education, 53, 8, 688-90, Aug 78

A field trip program for third-year medical students at Howard University College of Medicine, in existence since 1969, is described. It permits students to observe and evaluate healthy and handicapped children in a non-hospital environment, allows children and students to interact informally, and exposes students to various agency settings in education, rehabilitation, and counseling.
