Show UTO NIA NNineteen TwelveMedicsIN THE efficiency of the Medical School of the University of Utah, is further evidence that Utah is eager to provide herself with every element in an educational system that can promote human welfare.With the school year of 1910-1911, the entrance requirements were raised to two years of college work. That these requirements were strictly enforced is attested by the diminished size of the present first-year class in Medicine. The effort demanded from the prospective physician or surgeon who begins in this State the study of Medicine, insures to the people a highly specialized body of men capable of handling with greater certainty of skill the numerous problems of human physical ill which may afflict the community. These efforts on the part of the Medical students of the University of Utah and the heads of the departments in the College of Medicine are worthy of the highest consideration of the people and their representatives, who, in spite of all they have done in the past, must do more in the future.Recognition of the meritorious work of the Medical School increases. Former students, now in other institutions, have demonstrated that Utah is worthy of recognition. Inquiries from the greatest universities show their inclination to welcome Utah's men because of the splendid preliminary training these men have received here. The report of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and the reports of the educational committee of the American Medical Association, each independent of the other, concedes to Utah "First Rank-Class A."98 |
