I love that she went on to have a 30 year career as well. She's an OG.

Wow! What an awesome lady!

Also, did anyone else catch that in 1968 it used to cost $50 to apply to med school? That's like $340 now. Here I thought my AMCAS bill was bad.....

Pretty sure it says 50$ per application. That's actually more money than now I think.
