Hippocratic Oath

2014

Dartmouth Book Arts Workshop

___

While at Dartmouth College, Amelia Raether studied International Relations and Government. It was only after graduation, while working in a job on campus, that she became involved in the Book Arts Programme. Amelia produced several pieces in the Workshop, starting off small with postcards and posters. Her version of the Hippocratic Oath was inspired by her peers’ medical school endeavours. She wanted to make a gift for them and remind them ‘of the role and responsibilities they’ve accepted as physicians’. Since leaving Dartmouth, Amelia has moved to Washington DC and works in management consulting.
