28 1935 YACKETY YACK F A C U L T ky y ex-Qvi? THE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE The beginning of medical instruction at the University of North Carolina dates back to 1879, when Dr. Thomas W. Harris conducted here a medical class under the preceptoral method of in- struction with the assistance of certain University departments. This school was discontinued in 1886. In 1890 the present School of Medicine was founded under the direction of Dr. Richard H. Whitehead, and in 1900 became incorporated into the University as a fully organized two-year medical school. Since that date the School has had an uninter- rupted record of service to the state, has con- tinued to grow in influence throughout the state and nation, and has won for itself a record among medical educators for the excellence and thor- oughness of its work. In 1898 it was admitted to memliership into the Association of American Aledical Colleges, and is ranked in the class A group of American .Medi- cal Schools.

30 1935 YACKETY YACK FACULTY THE SCHOOL OF LAW The Law School, which has developed into the School of Law of the LTniversity of North Carolina, was founded at Chapel Hill in 1843 as a private school by William H. Battle, then a judge of the Superior court. In 1845, Judge Battle was made Professor of Law in the Univer- sity, and it was provided that the degree of Bach- elor of Laws should be conferred on those com- pleting the prescribed two-year course. For a long time the school maintained a certain inde- pendence from the University and students in law were not entirely subject to the discipline of the University. In 1899, the school was com- pletely incorporated into the LTniversity, with the late James C. McRae as the first Dean of the Law School. The School of Law is a member of the Asso- ciation of American Law Schools and has been listed as one of sixty-five schools classed as ap- proved law schools.
