Blaine had arranged for the competition to be held in the grand hall.His purpose in doing so was to provoke the students in the school.
After all, these students had yet to become part of the working society, so they were some of the most passionate people around.
When Nora arrived at the school's entrance, she could already see reporters heading to the grand hall.She frowned slightly, not understanding why the school wasn't doing anything about it.
Right at this moment, she heard the reporters' voices: "Hah, even though we had strongly requested that the medical university suspend and investigate Anti, they rejected our request and are defending her very fiercely.On top of that, they even said that this isn't a competition of skills but more like a debate instead, and have sincerely invited everyone from the medical profession to come over and watch! How are they so confident that they can clear Anti's name?"
"Exactly.I'm also very confused.It's as though the university has something they can use as leverage.I don't believe they can really clear her name!"
The two of them entered the school while discussing the topic.
Nora, however, stood where she was and broke into a frown.
A moment later, her lips suddenly curled into a smile.
To be honest, foreign universities had also invited her to become a professor or take on similar positions in their schools before, but she had rejected them all.
She had only become an external professor at the medical university because of Shaw.She didn't have any feelings for the New York University of Medicine.
After all, the school was ridden with all sorts of issues, such as the postgraduate entrance examination the other time, as well as Michael Lange...
However, in this instant, she suddenly felt like the school was actually very cute and lovable.
Their level of magnanimity alone already put the New York University of Medicine way above the foreign universities! The thought of all the messages criticizing alternative medicine on foreign websites made Nora narrow her eyes .
She strode toward the auditorium.She came relatively late.
By then, the people in the auditorium were already split into three different factions.
One faction was made up of firm supporters of modern medicine.
Blaine was their leader.
Another faction was made up of supporters of alternative medicine.
Jon and Elaine were their leaders.
Some students of alternative medicine in the school were also part of the group.
The last faction was made up of people remaining neutral.
Dean Shaw was the leader.
Michael and Lisa, as well as Sheril who was concerned for Nora, were all standing there.
Blaine and Jon were currently lashing out at each other while throwing medical terms around.
Blaine even cited a few patient case studies as a challenge for Jon.
Blaine had initially proposed that each side would provide a few patients for the other side to treat, but the plan was rejected.
After all, it was highly inappropriate to bring the patients to the venue.
Besides, they didn't bring the instruments and equipment used in modern medicine, either.
Both sides debated endlessly with each other, and their words became increasingly sharper.
When Nora arrived, Dean Shaw was making a concluding speech.
He said, "Whether it is alternative medicine or modern medicine, both are meant for the patients' well- being.We should not be promoting one and belittling the other! Therefore, there is no meaning to the debate today at all! Mr.Myers, you're an old-timer in the field of alternative medicine.I only have one question for you—is modern medicine really inferior to alternative medicine? Can you guarantee that you have never taken any modern drugs in your entire life? Or that you have never had any CT scans done?" Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Dean Shaw's words made Jon choke.
Blaine immediately let out a contemptuous laugh.
However, before he could speak, Dean Shaw spoke again.
"Don't be so happy yet, Dr.Jonas.My question for you is, when women with fertility problems have CT scans done, most of the time it doesn't show any problems.Can you help them resolve their endocrine disorders and problems with their weak spleen and stomach?"
Blaine also choked.
Dean Shaw sighed.
"Therefore, it is utterly meaningless for us to be arguing about this.Alternative and modern medicine complement and supplement each other.The ultimate goal should be to cure the patient!"
Prior to this, both sides had already experienced intense debates, and over the course of the debate, everyone present had all gained an understanding of the subjects to some extent.
Thus, when Dean Shaw said what he did, all the students became rather thoughtful.
Just like that, the confrontation between modern and alternative medicine practitioners calmed down.
Nora, who was among the crowd, felt that Shaw had handled the problem in a rather comprehensive and well-rounded manner.
However, Jon suddenly went on the offensive.
He said, "Dean Shaw, what you said is indeed correct, but the person who caused this dispute is Anti, your school's external professor! If she hadn't made such an arrogant and ignorant claim that modern medicine is superior to alternative medicine, how would things have come to this point?"
Elaine nodded.
"Yes, everyone here is an elite from all walks of life, but just because of one sentence she said, everyone has come here to fight about these issues, leading to the current situation.All of this is because of Anti!"
Blaine also immediately chimed in and said, "Yes, I was also influenced by Anti.That was why I had challenged the alternative medicine circle in a moment of pique.Now that I think about it, I feel so ashamed of myself.Mr.Myers, I was too impulsive!"
Jon waved and said, "You're still young, so it's understandable that you would get ahead of yourself.However, we mustn't let the culprit go scot-free!"
Blaine and Elaine highly approved of what he said.
"Yes, I strongly suggest that Anti be punished!"
Given how things had come to this point with regard to the incident, to be honest, punishing Anti would serve as giving everyone and every industry a proper explanation.
With that, the incident would also pass.
Nora stood in the crowd and folded her arms.
The next moment, Dean Shaw waved and said, "Now that things have come to this, I shall just tell everyone the truth! To be honest, I was the one who told Anti to say those frivolous things!"
