In an interview in December 1987, Hans Popper noted that the community medicine arm of the tripod did surprisingly well in reaching out to the community and in instilling the concept of humanities and community service into the student body. At that point, he actually believed that this factor had succeeded beyond hopes, while the other two legs of research and patient care, the ones he considered most important, had lagged.
