Well, I can tell you there is no such meme for those of us who manage Standardized Patients, although I definitely think there should be! When people ask what I do for a living and I tell them I manage the Standardized Patient (SP) Program (among many other responsibilities in the Clinical Education realm) at Wake Forest School of Medicine, I usually get a puzzled look and a reference to the video below:
