"Jimmy's the best psychologist in the world," he said. "He would sit down and talk to the med students if he could tell they were down."
Bowers said he appreciated the students because of the difficult job they had.
"These guys are special because they do something nobody else does — see life, death and injury," he said. "People don't think about it." Some are just 21 years old — just babies.
"I can't think of anything I wouldn't do for a med student. They usually just come here to socialize and are gone by 10 p.m. If they want to eat, they would buy a quart for $7, not $1 per drink."
Every year Bowers throws parties for the first-year students and the students who RIED.
Greg Kahrs, Wichita first-year med student, said the party served as a welcome to the Med Center, but trips to the bar after that were few and far between.
"Going to med school and getting drunk are not conducive to each other," he said. We just closed the library out at 1 p.m. and sent my sms. but it is the extent of our partying."
Marilyn Teeter, Topeka first-year med student, said the bar had good food and good music, but proximity was a prime factor for the bar's popular among med students.
"You meet a lot of locals here, and it is good for socializing. You have to have some way to relieve pressure." As Bowers said, most of the med students left the bar by 10 p.m. As they filed out, Jimmy Bowers, friend to some and bar owner to others, asked one of them, "You need a ride home?"
Wendell Zee, Topeka senior, Phyllis Thompson, Leawood senior, and James Barata, New Canaan, Conn., enjoy the homelike atmosphere of Jimmy's Jigger, a Kansas City,

did a year ago, according to the report. With a net sales increase of about $4,000, Ferguson said, the Burge bookstore "breaks even" and the food service makes a "little惊喜."
The needs of patrons have changed since the Burge Union's opening in 1979. Long said, and it has become necessary to make some changes at the building to keep pace with the changing needs.
Long said ideas about changes needed at the Burge Union had been discussed. But he said there was "no price tag on what the cost would be yet."
HE SAID THAT he hoped a document authorizing remodeling at the Burge Union would be approved later this month and that bidding would begin in April.
Relocating the University Placement Center on the first level of the Burge Union was a priority. Long said. The center would help attract people to the building.
Portable walls in the conference room on the third level would provide five smaller meeting rooms or one large conference room.
Another area of possible remodeling is the party room, which is not adequately used, long said. He recommended that some be stored in a separate equipment building in stores of the party room.
The Wilderness Discovery room on the first level would be made smaller to provide more office space for Legal Services for Students, Long said.
"We're not looking at millions of dollars like the main Union," said Long, referring to the plan to renovate the Union.
