  Joseph M. Schwartz, MD: MPS President
  ...
  Originally from New York, Joseph M. Schwartz, MD, the 57th President of the MPS, came to Maryland to enter college at Johns Hopkins in 1983, and he has been here ever since. After full-time work at Hopkins that included being the Director of the Psychiatric Ambulatory Clinic, Dr. Schwartz became the Clinical Director of the Psychiatry Department at Howard County General Hospital on July 1, 2004.
  
  When we talked in June, I asked him how he first developed his interest in psychiatry. He told me, "In a roundabout way.
  ...
  Dr. Schwartz has ambitious plans to develop Howard County General's facility. He intends to develop special facilities for emergency psychiatric patients to avoid their being placed in a medical-surgical bed in the emergency department. He also plans to expand the addictions treatments that the department and the hospital provide. Now that he has become involved with treating adolescents, he would like to ensure that they get the services most helpful to them. He is aware that "there is a trend for departments to cut back on their programs and I think that there's a need that, hopefully, I'll be able to fill."
  
  During his Presidency, he plans to focus on ways to increase member participation (not just membership numbers) and on ways to strengthen our alliance with our "sister" district branch, the Washington Psychiatric Society.
  
  I'm sure that the MPS will be well-served by Dr. Schwartz during his Presidency, given his rich background and his willingness to learn and teach.

  The principals' departure, though a loss for the town, is not totally a surprise, Board of Education member Joseph Schwartz said, "given the lack of obvious support the community has given [in] approving funding for the schools.
  
  "It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that these are dedicated people giving their all to the school system and there has been no support," he said.
  ...
  "We got criticisms from within and outside the education community from people who are much more concerned about their own opinions than the facts," Schwartz said."It is difficult to deal with people who are constantly challenging administrators."
  
  The budget season also has been a difficult one for school officials.The town spending plan that residents will vote on in a Tuesday referendum has a 2 percent increase over the current budget and, if passed, will require cuts in many areas, school officials have warned.
  
  It also has been a difficult year for the two principals, Schwartz said.
  
  Janis, who took over at Staples last July, replacing Donna Denniston, had to deal with the school's deteriorating physical condition, he said, which could have influenced her decision.
  
  "The conditions at Staples were certainly something she didn't expect," he said.
  
  And Sneideman bore the responsibility after an effort to hire an assistant principal repeatedly failed, Schwartz said.
  
  Neither Janis nor Sneideman could be reached for comment Friday afternoon.
