From “My days at the Alma mater” Dr H S Satish. Professor of ENT, BMC in the BMC Magazine “BMC Alumni Day 2005”
“ I belong to the 1977-82 batch of Mysore Medical College. It is still the first MBBS which was for one and a half years that gave me more thrills and challenges . It was then belief that “you pass first year and you are a doctor”. We had strict disciplinarians like Dr S.Kantha and Dr Krishne Urs and probably they were responsible for a lighter ragging period in our initial weeks…. We used to marvel at the express speed of anatomy recitations by Dr Krishne Urs and Dr Rajeshwari……….For all the students it was “Exercise of the Dissection” which would be a nightmarish experience.. the particular dissection one has to do was selected by lots… and I drew the “Dissection of submandibular triangle” The day was saved since Dr Krishne Urs understood my plight and I was let off after answering his questions reasonably…..”
