Courses in the principles of medicine and of surgery have been instituted so that the student may familiarize himself with the fundamentals of medicine. The great possibilities which lie open to the dentist in the rapid development of local anesthesia is recognized in the laboratory course given in this subject upon the cadaver. It is also hoped to institute a short course in physical diagnosis, in order that the student of oral surgery may be made aware of the danger of promiscuous administration of general anesthetics and come to recognize the signs of question- able risks. The departments of prosthetic dentistry and operative dentistry are ' being reorganized in that the work of these departments is to be subdivided and put in charge of skilled experts in the various branches of the work covered by r the student. Finally it must be said that the union of the College with the University offers ' almost unlimited opportunities for advance along educational lines. The Medical College will derive advantage through the affiliation with the teaching body of the Dental College. The medical curriculum has neglected stomatology under the T assumption that the mouth was the field for the dentistg and on the other hand the Dental College was not completely in the position to supply the necessary 1 instruction in the medical sciences and in medicine and surgery.

r III 1 in E tive dentistry and dental therapeutics from 1898 and Dean from 1915 until his 5 .tlrlg llll I. death in 1924 The progress of development of the pre-dental requirements and the college 1111 1 'llll curriculum has kept pace with the demands of the State Legislature but as has been the case in medical education as well the dental schools have required the ' stimulus of outside agencies to bring them to their present state of evolution : - The passage by the New York State Legislature of a law requiring that all : - ' dental schools in the State become affiliated with universities made it imperative E - for the New York College of Dentistry to seek some university connection The E matter of affiliation of the College with New York University had been under 5 consideration for some seven or eight years On the side of the University the , authorities desired that the new school should function as a real asset since the it V, Klum llllll Council recognised that the budget of a modern dental college would not fall much 1 5 below that of 'i well-equipped medical institution Since the University Medical 2 : - College presented an annual deficit the University could not afford to take on - ' an additional liability of this sort The University authorities were finally con- : I : vinced that a Grade A dental school could be begun with the funds available from - ' 1 tuition and clinic especially since the Dental College had paid off all of the indebt- 2 : 5 edness upon its buildings. On June 30, 1925, the New York College of Dentistry E In f g if p 2 turned over to the University land, buildings and equipment worth approximately E p 1 5 gf, E S500,000, the equipment being of a character that would form the basis for the E tg IE. ' E construction of a first class educational institution. 1 5 ' E E ll, 2 , s V' 1 E E Ng Dental education is in a state of transition from the proprietary type of the Er E E55 5 uwnmiw .lm last fifty years to that in which the dental student receives proper fundamental training in his art. In the early beginnings in medicine, surgery received special i- i - 312 Ska if 1 ...E attention and in a similar way, dentistry has magnified the technical or manual side 1 fbi of the profession. Recently the art of dentistry has moved in the direction of becoming a branch of public health service similar to medicine and the tendency i has shown itself for the dentist to concern himself with all normal and pathological 1 F conditions of the mouth. If the dentist is to be considered as a specialist in medicine, 5 it 1 5 it is quite evident that his training should include those fundamental sciences now E E 5 2 S taught in the medical school. The dentist should be thoroughly conversant with . E .. E 5-E the mouth as a focus of origin for general or systematic symptoms indicating 11 F E L 3 1 1 pathology in order that- he may recognize the need for calling the medical man into E r-w : .. - E ll E . . . E 5 g g consultation when the need becomes imperative. : 2 I L E The curriculum of the New York University College of Dentistry will be W-llfllll lllllllll llllmll llllll umm ' 'W' lllllll ll Ilillll lll lllllhl nlmmllllllll ml' I1-1155 v fl l ' mwmmrmimuuumimimmmi mu u lu mum mmm u lnf..3:92i rg-.E ' A ' gig rr A E F: - ' ' E14 SS. sa va ff 'H' 'HM Hfmmmlm umm' 'mmumrmnmmn mnnmmnmmmm nur' V Isle-kiss. fi mum mmfmur rnmrnmlnrm.-mm mn nm n rmuu mum mmrmrmmnlmnm.nUlIlllllP.cB built upon a two year pre-dental course of physics, biology and chemistry, which ,ir V ga requirements also forms the minimum basis for entrance into a medical school in ' .1 -..-.2 2 Fl: 'F' rn 1 . . . .
