The Faculty The Faculty. from the stand-point of a student is apt to be spoken of in a manner that is startling, to say the least. The impressions that a man gains of a member of the Faculty while under his instruction are many and varied. Here at Yale a man learns first, respect and reverence-respect for the institutiong its traditions, and there is with it the knowledge of the eminence of Yale so that it inevitably follows that a man early realizes that, to be on the Faculty is, in itself, guarantee of sterling worth. The Faculty of the Medical Department at Yale is made up of men eminent in the professiong strong men-capable men-faithful and earnest men-lovable men-and men under whom it is a privilege to labor because of their very power and iznsellishness. These things are shown best by results and the workings of the men who have been graduated from Yale give the best means of exemplihcation of all that has been said. lt is a fact that in the history of the School, no man who has tried the state board examinations of any state in the Union save Connecticut alone, which more Yale graduates try examinations for than any other state, has failed to pass them. Yale men are known and eminent all over the world. lfroin the time a Yale man graduates and tries examinations for hospital appointment. to the day when his work on earth is finished, the general thing is, a clean and brilliant record-because of his training at Yale. The members of the Faculty are known and respected all over the world. This was strikingly illustrated a few weeks ago, in the case of the writer, upon the presentation of credentials in making application for appointment examinations to a certain New York hospital. The man to whom these were given-himself prominent in the medical profession-said, I see you have a letter from Dr. Carmalt. Let me tell you that a letter from lzinz means as much, almost, to me as any examination ever given-- for when Dr. Cai-malt says a thing is so, it can be depended upon that it is as he has said. He is a man of character and learning and I am glad to meet you because of what he has said of you.
