Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Papers and Addresses, Vol. 3 of 3 Your attention will be called with just pride today to the achievements of this university during the first decade of its existence. Its contributions to letters and to science, its high standard of education and its usefulness in many directions are themes which are appropriate to the occasion. But in celebrating the past and the present we look forward with courage and enthusiasm to the future. For this future the subject which is now uppermost in the plans and the councils of the university is the establishment and the development of the medical department, in accordance with the conception of the munificent founder of the university and of the hospital. As the past ten years have witnessed the development of the philosophical department to its present position of high achievement and active usefulness, so it is hoped that the close of another decade will look back upon a similar record of good work and of progress in the medical department. The higher purposes of medical education can be attained only by the establishment of well equipped laboratories and by the foundation of hospitals. For these, in a country where advanced education is dependent upon private benevolence, endowments are necessary. It is not a little remarkable that the first considerable bequest for the beneficent purposes of medical education in this country was made by the farsighted founder of this university, whose example in this respect has already been an inspiration for others to follow. It is a wise provision that the medical department has been placed in organic connection with the other departments of the university; that it is coordinate with these. The relation which universities and medical schools should bear to each other has given rise to no little discussion in several of the universities of Europe, and the conclusion has been reached that for many reasons the interests of each are best subserved by making the medical school a department of the university, rather than by the foundation of independent schools of medicine. Besides the fact that certain branches of study belong equally to the philosophical and to the medical faculty, or are upon the border line between these, experience has shown that this connection conduces to greater solidity, to a more elevated tone, and to a broader and more enlightened system of medical education.
