Has anyone ever had the experience of being a diener (an individual who acts as an autopsy assistant to pathologists)? If so what was it like and how did you attain such a position?

Does anyone have any helpful tips on how to assist on autopsies or do any kind of work relating to that? Or even how I could just observe the procedure. It doesn't have to be a paying job or anything, just as long as I could observe. I'm interesed in forensic pathology so I would like to have some kind of experience before I get into medical school, if that's possible at all.
I'm currently and undergrad, I'll be a full time student this coming fall, and I'm planning to graduate next year and then hopefully attend med school in the fall of 2003. So my time is limited. And I don't have any previous experience in this kind of thing.
If anyone has any ideas I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!
