ROBERT GLENN President 1 7:110. 9 rt THOMAS H. HUNTER Dean of III: School of Medicine WILLIAM CARTER l icv-Prmident SCHOOL OF At the first meeting of the Board of Visitors in 1819, Thomas Jefferson authorized a School of Anatomy and Medicine to be an integral part of the University of Vir- ginia. The school, established in 1824 and opened for in- struction on March 7, 1825, was the first School of Medi- cine in the South. The opening class consisted of but twenty-six students, and in 1829 the first degree of Doctor of Medicine was con- ferred. With the curriculum expanding to a four year course in 1899, the opening of the central pavillion of the Uni- versity Hospital in 1901, and the establishment of specific collegiate entrance requirements, the modern period of the school may be said to have begun. Dr. Robley Dunglison, who later became tenOwned as the author of the first American Medical Dictionary, was the original professor. In 1827 the faculty was enlarged by the appointment of Dr. John Patton Emmet to a Professorship of Materia Medica; Obstetrics and Medical Jurisprudence were added to the curriculum in the same year. Also the name of the school was changed to the uSchool of Medi. cine. In 1830 Dr. Thomas Johnson was appointed to a Professorship of Anatomy and Surgery. By 1905 the faculty consisted of ten full time professors. Dhting the twentieth century the School has continued to keep abreast of rapid developments in medical progress. The physical plant has been augmented by enlargement of the intern,s quartets, expansion of lecture rooms, an increase in laboratory and research facilities, a new auditorium and an addition of a wing to the hospital. Recent increases in the size and quality of the faculty represent a definite ad- vance toward a better School of Medicine. OFFICERS ROBERT GLENN ....................................
