MAIIUUETTE UNIVERSITY MENTAL SCHOOL 2)cwLy s Ut'u Li I Mttijccn.t sf li.fi ytsfcMcnal iahl et In keeping with the increasing importance of dentistry as a profession and the progress made in dental science, the Marquette Dental school lias maintained its position among the best schools of its kind in the country by constantly strengthening its curriculum. In 1936, the addition of a year to the course fixed the curriculum at six years. Originally only three years, the course had been lengthened to five years by previous additions in 1917 and 1923. During the past year, basic science examinations were introduced as a requirement to be met before fourth-year work. Opened to students in 1891 as a division of the Milwaukee Medical college, the Dental school became affiliated with Marquette University in 1907. Six years later, the school was made an integral part of the University and in 1922, the present College Gothic Dental building was erected on the west campus. The large, modern clinic is one of the outstanding features of the school. Thousands Dental vchool graduate' leave their clinical work to write the 5-tatc hoard examinations. take advantage of the extensive facilities of the clinic annually. Through clinical work under faculty supervision, advanced students develop professional skill and ability. A special steel observation stand in the completely equipped oral surgery operating room enables groups of students to observe surgical technique during operations by faculty members. ■Dr. Henry I..

The degree of Doctor of Philosophy, the highest conferred, requires at least two years beyond the Master's degree and is attained only after a comprehensive, written examination, a thoroughly scientific piece of research showing complete mastery of the field, and an oral defense of this work in addition to the required courses. The doctor’s thesis must constitute a definite contribution to the field in which it is written and the published work is then filed in the school library. Last year two of the state's outstanding laymen received honorary degrees. The degree of Doctor of Laws was conferred upon Marvin Bristol Rosenberry, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Wisconsin, and John Joseph Hannan, B.A., M.A., president of the Wisconsin State Board of Control. This year two hundred ninety-one students worked for their Master's degrees and twenty-three prepared for a Doctor’s degree. Other hundreds, while considered members of the Graduate school, did not attend regularly but took advantage of the six year period allowed for the fulfillment of requirements. Completion of j Master's thesis is in important port of the work for i Master's degree. Dr. Fitzpatrick has long been a leader in Catholic literary and teaching fields. As dean of the Graduate school for the past fifteen years he has done much to further the aim of education at Marquette—the successful combination of spiritual and temporal that is characteristic of a Jesuit institution. The Rev. Edward McGrath, S.J., has been regent of the Graduate school for a year. Dot tor -hi,I Mister's degrees jre conferred with impressive ceremony Jt the commencement exercises in June. Pack 7

A high degree of educational cooperation between the Medical and Dental schools makes it possible for the students of both schools to use jointly the anatomical, physiological, physiological chemistry and pharmacological laboratories in the Medical wing of the building. Dental students also have access to the various technical museums and the auditorium of the Medical school. The Dental school received a class A rating in 1 c 17 from the Dental Education Council of America and has held that distinction ever since. This year, however, all ratings of dental schools have been voided pending the results of a nation-wide re-examination by the Dental Council of America. Dr. Henry L. Banzhaf completed his thirty-seventh year as dean of the Dental school. The Rev. Anthony F. Berens, S.J., is regent. Extra-curricular activity among Dental students is promoted by the Junior American Dental Association and three fraternities. JUNIORS liacr How: Wemcart, K'uim. Wink, F. Schmitt, Dilnlto.
