The St. Luke`s Hospital Gazette : volume 3 issue 1

Abstract

The primary focus of this editorial, entitled “June Matters” is the exams topic, identifying the main reasons why exams are so inevitable and no other options exists, apart from being a hassle for both teachers and students. Whilst reference is made to the students` protests in various parts of Europe, the editor claims that Maltese students are lucky in having no cause for revolt. Things are not however going fine at St. Luke`s Hospital Malta which is overcrowded, and in this regard the editor stresses the need for expansion. Within the “Medical News” section, information is provided about outstanding lectures given abroad by Maltese physicians, as well as by visiting lecturers. Additionally, new attainments and advancements of Maltese physicians are outlined. A scientific “Publications List” by graduates of the Maltese medical and dental schools since the last five years is presented. It is also worthwhile to take a look at the several advertisements promoting the names of particular pharmaceuticals at that time.
