Meaning Preordained or Meant To Be MK: My entry into the field of medical humanities at Northeast Ohio Medical University (NEOMED) in 1981 places me in the second generation of those to enter a field whose roots go back to 1960 Although not part of the initial wave of immigrants to the shores of this new multi-(or for some, trans-) disciplinary academic endeavor, the second wave was still a time when many of us from disparate fields-my training is in education-received a warm welcome. I began my work at NEOMED a few months after its inaugural class graduated. How unexpected, then-and fortunate-to find myself in exactly the same situation 28 years later (in 2009) at Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine (CCLCM) of Case Western Reserve University. Was it fate? Destiny? Or was it what we might call bashert that my department chair would be a former (favorite) NEOMED student-and friend-Rick Kodish
