Until 1960, pharmacists were the only health professionals who could obtain all their education at the state university. Medicine offered only a two-year pro- gram, and nursing and dentistry none. The transition began in 1951 when the Legislature authorized construc- tion of the WVU Medical Center and levied a penny-a- bottle tax on soft drinks to provide basic financing. The WVU Medical Center was planned as a single struc- ture—Basic Sciences Building and University Hospital under one roof— on the Evansdale Campus north of the Downtown Campus. The Basic Sciences portion opened in 1957; first degrees were awarded in the early 1960 ' s. Dentistry now enrolls 240 students, medicine more than 350, and nursing 300 in four- year programs; and pharma- cy 205 in a five-year curriculum. Dental hygiene, medical technology, and physical therapy students number near- ly 200; basic science students 90; and post-doctoral resi- dents 180. f;, X ■ Mi ' mHA l»l«RSn» MEOCAL C£N , -OOl Of Ot« ' iSt« ' .; -OOl or VNAiwAC ( -OO ' 0» IIU» »C
