I DH. CHARLES THILL Clinical Dean The history of the medical school at Loyola University began in 1909 when the Illinois Medical School was atiiliated with Loyola University. In 1910 the Bennett and Alliance medical colleges were added, and in 1917 the Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery was acquired. This assimilation and combination of four independent schools into one institution proved to be a marked con- tribution to the raising of standards of medi- cal education in Illinois and througlout the Midwest. DR. THESLE JOB REV. MICHAEL I. BNI IINH SJ Preclinicnl Dean Regent In 1948 the Loyola University School of Medicine came to be known as the Stritch School of Medicine. In June 1948, Mr. Frank J. Lewis gave the university fI'p1,085.000.00 for the beginning of a new building to house the Stritch School of Medicine and Loyola University School of Dentistry.
