There was only one other medical school in the State at this time, that of the Medical Department of the Denver University, founded in 1881. Then for a short period C1894-19021 there were four medical schools in Colorado. ln addition to the two schools which have been mentioned, there were the Gross Medical College and the Denver Homeopathic College. The Medical College of Denver University and the Gross Medical College were united in 1902 under the name, l'The Denver and Gross College of Medicine. The Denver Homeopathic College terminated its existence in 1909, and two years later The Denver and Gross College of Medicine was incorporated in the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Since that date it has continued as the only medical school in Colorado. i DEAN Rises CDMlB1NlElD MlElDlltCS VON DETTEN IUDD BELL CASEY Page 25

E L , .: 'i'-yi-i 'L'EEi':' , EWTCYIS , L CUIJIJEGE OE ENGINEERING UR measure of service to our fellows and our accomplishment of tasks worth while are not always dependent on the age of either an individual or an institution, yet without a background of years, we lack a perspective by which we can intelligently prophesy the future. I The College of Engineering can take a back- ward look over a period of thirty-four years, and through lights and shadows can mark a steady line of progress towards those ideals which have been its goal. Lessons and memories from these years give enthusiasm and conhdence for the future. In terms of human life, the College has reached its prime but since it is an institution, instead of an individual, this vital age should continue indefi- nitely in splte of the passing of years. DEAN EVANS As evidence of this vitality, the College of Engineering continues to grow and advance. This year the attendance has increased, a new course in Archi- tectural Engineering has been added to the curriculum, and the faculty have con- tinued their co-operation with our national organization of colleges of engineering in studying better educational methods.
