the University of Kansas, graduated from the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., in 1976. Her father, Edward McGrade, is a retired professor of mechanical engineering at KU.
McBride said that she did not decide to become a doctor until the end of her junior year in college. The fact that many of her fellow students in the honors program were pre-medical majors influenced her decision to go to medical school.
"IHAD NEVER been in a hospital before I got to med school," she said. "If I had, I might never have become a doctor.
"There are a lot of adjustments in getting used to sick people and bed pans and the atmosphere of a hospital."
McBride said that although being a woman might have helped her get admitted to medical school, it did not help her complete it.
At the time she entered medical school, were not very well accepted by professional colleges.
"Medicine was definitely a fraternity that women didn't fit into. There were always lakes
in lectures that derided women and women's anatomy that I'm sore were funny to the men in them.
FURTHERMORE, women were excluded from much of the comradeship of the male medical school students.
At Watkin, McBride sees many young women who come in for pregnancy testing and contrapresence. She said she was shocked by the lack of knowledge that she do not understand how contraceptives work.
"IT AMAZES ME how much sexual activity goes on here without any knowledge of the biological processes of reproduction or birth control," she said.
McBride said that many girls believed that they could stop taking their birth control pills and immediately begin using the rhythm method. A woman who had just quit using oral contraceptives would not be able to tell when she was ovulating.
She would like to start a program to educate students in birth control

reductant for us to take part of the collection out of storage and tamper with it,' she said in 1973
The Wilacoz Collection, a collection of Greek and Roman art, has been moved to a dry storage area, but 20 percent of collection has already rotted away. Elizabeth Banks, curator of the collection, said yesterday — Kansas, January 19, 1883.
In September, it was announced that Mary A. Grant, curator of the Wilcox Collection from 1944 to 1980, had donated $3,000 for the installation of the collection in a room in Lippincott Hall.
The collection was then moved from the shed on West Campus to a warehouse in southeast Lawrence so that the collection could be prepared for display. Workers discovered that some of the casts had been corroded by rain while they were stored in the shed.
Last fall Banks said that she hoped that the collection could be displayed by this summer but that the costs of the renovation of the room in Lippincott Hall have delayed these plans.
LATE LAST YEAR the Kansas University Endowment Association granted $2,500 so that the pieces could be restored.
Al Johnson, assistant to the vice chancellor for academic affairs, said that the renovation could cost from about $34,000 to about $48,000.
He said that the University asked the Board of Regents for $17,500 last spring for the renovation, but the Regents rejected the request because they were allocating money for maintenance and utilities, not for remodeling.
JOHNSON SAID, HOWEVER, that he hoped to move forward with the renovation this year but that he did not know when the project would be completed.
Banks also was uncertain when the collection would again be on display.
In the meantime, KU students must go elsewhere to see classical antiquities or even copies. The Wilcox Museum is indefinitely in storage — Kansan, May 3, 1973.

"I voted no because I wanted to see it kicked back for more discussion," he said.
T. P. SRIINVASAN, professor of mathematics and an opponent of the proposed amendment, said the amendment's defects were the lack of a credible review mechanism and the lack of an equitable compensation package for affected faculty.
"I see the vote as an affirmation by the faculty at large of its desire to stand up and be counted, and as a call to the faculty governance to represent the true faculty sentiments to the administration," Srinivasan said in a letter to the Kansas.
No program discontinuance policy now runs at KU, and the only way for the University to lay emphasis faculty members is for the character to declare a state of financial exigency.
FINANCIAL EXIGENCY is said to occur when the University is so low on funds that it must lay off faculty and staff and eliminate programs.
