The Student Curriculum Committee is working as an integral part of the University Curriculum Committee to give the faculty a representative student viewpoint of the current academic curriculum and what the student opinion might be to proposed changes. Sug- gestions by the students are greeted with en- thusiasm and considered in detail. In association with the Student Curriculum Committee. each class has a committee to evaluate the teaching methods and courses taught to them during the past year. These evaluations are correlated and submitted for consideration along with recommendations in an attempt to further express student opinion in a meaningful and constructive way. Wynn Mabry.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Ol-' THE lffACUl.TY CURRICUV l.UM COMMITTEE, Dr. W. O. Smith, Dr. .lzimes A. Merrill, Dr. Eugene D. Jacobson, Dr. Gorden Dcckcrl. Curriculum nder Review Beginning five years ago the Curriculum Committee agreed that there was a need to review and evaluate the entire curriculum of the Medical School. This process increased in proportions last year with the decision to implement a new curriculum for all four years of Medi- cal School in the Fall of 1969. The responsibility for defining in detail the new curriculum was given to the Executive Committee and six study committees. Five of the study committees are composed of faculty members and one medical student. The sixth study committee con- sists of all of the medical students assigned to the other live committees. In addition, each class of medical stu- dents has a curriculum committee whose purpose is to evaluate the curriculum of their particular year. The present goal of the Curriculum Committee ac- tivities is to place our Medical School at the forefront of contemporary medical education.
