The Future of Pediatric Education,1 a report by a special Task Force under Dr. C. Henry Kempe, has been widely circulated to practitioners and academicians since its publication in the spring of 1978. Dr. Kempe summarized its recommendations in his presidential address to the American Pediatric Society.2 The Task Force consisted of 17 members representing most of the constituent societies responsible for pediatric education, research, and service in the United States. They worked for two years, commissioned two surveys—one of parents and one of 7,000 recent (since 1964) graduates of pediatric residencies— and met with numerous consultants. Of the 11 recommendations, most have resulted in little disagreement, perhaps in part because no single group was forced to change its behavior as a result of the study.

This section, updated regularly on the blog Palestine Square, covers popular conversations related to the Palestinians and the Arab-Israeli conflict during the quarter 16 November 2017 to 15 February 2018: #JerusalemIstheCapitalofPalestine went viral after U.S. president Donald Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and announced his intention to move the U.S. embassy there from Tel Aviv. The arrest of Palestinian teenager Ahed Tamimi for slapping an Israeli soldier also prompted a viral campaign under the hashtag #FreeAhed. A smaller campaign protested the exclusion of Palestinian human rights from the agenda of the annual Creating Change conference organized by the US-based National LGBTQ Task Force in Washington. And, UNRWA publicized its emergency funding appeal, following the decision of the United States to slash funding to the organization, with the hashtag #DignityIsPriceless.
