NORTH Caldwell Hall C. S. Mangum, Dean THE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE The beginning of medical instruction at the University of North Carolina dates back to 1879, when Dr. Thomas W. Harris conducted here a medical class under the preceptorial method of instruction with the assistance of certain University departments. The School was discontinued in 1886. In 1890 the present School of Medicine was founded under the direction of Dr. Richard H. Whitehead, and in 1900 became incorporated into the University as a fully or- ganized two-year medical school. Since that date the School has had an uninterrupted record of service to the State, has continued to grow in in- fluence throughout the State and Nation, and has won for itself a record among medical educators for the excellence and thoroughness of its work. In 1898 it was admitted to membership into the Association of American Medical Colleges, and is ranked in Class A group of American Medical Schools. Over 600 of the 2,300 practicing physicians in North Carolina today are alumni of the institu tion, and they include and have included many of the most prominent and influential physicians in North Carolina.
