My response was actually meant for Tony. I believe that was his
comment.

I also believe that the
dental school has been closed.
I have known several Georgetown grads, including my chief resident and
the chief of the oral surgery training program at Catholic Medical
Center, where I did my GP residency.
These were among the smartest guys I've known. Whatever else I
thought
of them, they were extremely well-educated, and I can assure you that
if
all they got at Georgetown was that ol'-time religion, they did a heck
of a job learning their art and (yes) science on their own.
BTW, are you implying that Tony is an ecclesiastical scholar?

I can only go by what he posts, so I don't doubt he knows more religion
than science, certainly no less. I do not really know what they taught
at Georgetown but it is a fact that it is not a scientific school,
their
engineering courses were easy and it is a fact that they are known for
law and medicine (which is not really a science).

On the other hand maybe the problem lies in the fact that the dentists
they accepted had grades which are too good compared to other dentistry
schools and they did not really put enough emphasis on basic dentistry
skills,
assuming that my expierence with my dentist was a result of his dental
training



Big presumption. There's a bad apple in every barrel. Georgetown was
a very highly respected dental school. Can't speak for their other
colleges.

Steve

Another big presumption is that the doctor at issue was a bad apple. Clinton
seems to base this on the fact "he did try to kill me..by practicing with a
deadly disease!!". I do recall you and Clinton discussing this
topic/allegation on this NG a few years back, so I won't go into the holes
in the story again.

By the way Clinton, I see no evidence of you having graduated from any of
the schools at Georgetown. When was it you discovered how easy those
engineering courses were?

As for religion, lets see, my dental curriculum involved...let me
count...zero religion courses and our dental training involved clinical
requirements were higher (perhaps the highest) than any dental school.

Now Steve...I don't want to offend you, but when I was applying to dental
school I met with the dean of admissions at NYU. He was a dental graduate of
Georgetown and when I told him I had been accepted there, he told me I
should go there. I guess those old loyalties run deep!

Now while I am an ecclesiastical scholar, that is just something I do for
kicks.
