Medical School

ONE MILLION DOLLARS is news in any column and in a progress report as a single magnificent gift from Mrs. Edward Daniels Faulkner of Woodstock, Vermont, toward our Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital Expansion Fund, it means to the Committee that the total objective of two and one quarter million can be achieved. This should encourage all Medical Alumni to give their maximum possible support to this drive to enlarge our clinical teaching departments.

In addition to the campaign we are selecting our 1948 Class; we are appointing interns and residents; we are transferring the Second Year Class; we are expanding our graduate training and research program; we are organizing our new Medical North Laboratory; and we are planning a post-campaign sesquicentennial celebration of the founding of the School, which adds up to a busy season.
