In the following March, the National Academy of Sciences proactively invited Peter Aria to join its Life Sciences division, to continue contributing to the nation's scientific research.
For those in the medical field, this is the highest honor.
Naturally, within the year that Mr. Capris retired, Peter Aria successfully ascended to the position of dean.
The youngest dean in the history of the State Medical College, honorary academician of the National Academy of Sciences, honorary professor at Benefit University Medical College, his list of titles grew and so did his poise.
With a successful career and a loving wife by his side, the spirited Peter Aria was living a perfect life.
After finishing his lecture at the Medical College, instead of taking in the adoring gazes of the students, under the arrangement of the school's security, Peter Aria left through the back door.
The students surged forward like crazed fans.
In the eyes of medical students, Peter Aria was their god.
