WARD – The Class of 2016 was Feinberg’s most talented and diverse class yet and it appears it will stay that way for at least another year. A spokesperson for AWOME told Flipside reporters that the administration has decided to suspend all Medical Admission business for the Class of 2017.

This news comes at a time when M1 complaints about the new curriculum have subsided somewhat, but are still, well, at the level of being annoying.

“We just can’t stand it anymore,” one academic Dean, who wished to remain anonymous, explained to The Flipside in an exclusive interview. “The constant bickering and complaining is just becoming too much for us to handle mentally and we don’t want to endure another year of this, at least not right away.”

The plan is not to eliminate the new curriculum, but to eliminate next year’s M1 class altogether. That way, AWOME staff can take a break from “a bunch of new complainers,” as well as having to deal with two classes partaking in the new curriculum at one time.

“Don’t get me wrong, our Office of Admissions has done a terrific job,” the Dean added. “They deserve the time off.”

The school’s recent creation of student drop in sessions to create a time for students to voice their opinion was done so as to funnel all the complaints into a single session each week. This would limit the mental burden of AWOME.

“It hasn’t worked like we planned,” the Dean said. “Not only are they complaining at the drop in sessions, but they’re still complaining via email, in person, you name it.”

Amy Kleinfelter, an M2, is particularly upset about the decision. “I’m a tour guide. Where am I supposed to eat lunch now on Fridays?”
