When you enter the Sherman College Health Center for the first time, there are a few papers you need to fill out before you can get under an intern's care. That is when many patients notice a strange sight. We have a cup that is full of pens for patients to use for their paperwork, but none of the pens have caps! Since I have started my internship at Sherman College (of Straight Chiropractic) I have noticed this. Although this appears insignificant, I often borrow these pens from the front desk and store them for safe keeping in my jacket pocket. Since there are no caps, I am always marking myself up with ink. I think it would be interesting if somebody followed our daily shipment of pens and found out at what point somebody removes all the caps to them. We need to find out why this is done.
