zzmim Wt)r College of iflebicine The College of Medicine is one of the most impotent units of the University. since in all the United States there are only two medical schools with practically an entire Negro enrollment. Situated as it is, in the center of research and investigation of scientific problems, it affords singular opportunities to the Negro aspirant to the profession; and with its highly trained staff, rigid requirements and clinical advantages is able to graduate men of the highest technical ability. Freed men’s Hospital, one of the most completely equipped hospitals in the country of its size, affords clinical and operative advantages which can be secured at no other hospital in the country for this particular group. The new building now nearing completion will afford even greater laboratory facilities, and a far more pleasing atmosphere in lecture and classroom.
