WEISKO'1 I'IEN HE College of Medicine of Syracuse Uni- versity is one ofthe oldest and best known of our family of colleges and schools. It has had a long and honorable career. Always a Class A school, it has been a leader in some phases of medical education. The enrollment of the college has been lim- ited to about one-quarter of those who have applied for admission. The aim ofthe college is to pick from the applicants those men best fitted to take up the study of medicine. High standards of medical education are main- tained and in accordance with these standards the entrance requirements are high and the students come into intimate personal contact with their instructors and much of the instruc- tion is individual. The college impresses upon the students the importance of post-graduate work, and a student rarely enters upon the practice of medicine directly after graduation. The com- mon form of post-graduate work is a hospital interneship of from one to three years. XQX- a Qr 1925ow.Q.s.s.xv.QA+ .Q.Q 4: 22

D' Q - .Q - .-9 'The GNONDA GAN 1 'L ' . ' 1 College of Law THE College of Law, founded in 1895, began its work by giving the degree of Bachelor of Laws, after two years of study, to students who had just graduated from high school but it soon began to increase its requirements. In the college year 1898- 99 a third year was added to the course. In the year 1914 one year of Arts College work was added to the requirement for the Law degree and since 1923 no more students have been received as candidates for the Certificate in Law. The two-year requirement of Arts work of candidates will probably result in making the College of Law substantially a graduate college owing to the fact that students that have served only two years of Arts College work are required by the court of appeals to study law for four years before they can receive their certihcate to practice. The enrollment of the College of Law has lessened in number and improved in quality by these two changes. DEAN FRANK R. WALKER 1925cJi?2f4V,s2fQf4?25fA9.Q2f4y 23
