HISTORICAL SKETCH In 1892 the Hon. John A. Creighton decided to carry out his long cherished plan of organizing a Medical College and erecting a building suitably equipped for such a department. The school was organized, a proper faculty selected, and although compelled to occupy temporary quarters, the John A. Creighton Medical College opened its doors for the reception of students, September 27, 1892. On account of financial disturbances which were then sweeping over the country the erection of the new building was postponed from time to time, but was finally completed in the summer of 1896. The school opened with a three-years’ course, the popular and prevailing course at that time in medical colleges of this country; but in 1894 the college extended its course to four years, being the first school west of the Missouri River to require four years of study as a condition to a medical degree. THE COLLEGE BUILDINGS The College is located on the corner of Fourteenth and Daven­ port streets, five minutes’ walk from the important business district of the city. Two street car lines pass in front of the building, one of which connects directly with the line running to the St. Joseph’s Hospital. The entrance on the east side leads through an arcade under the open portico, which is 10x32 feet in size, then through the vestibule doors into the grand stairway hall, at the further end of which a double stairway will be seen to lead to the upper stories. On the first floor are the different rooms for the outdoor clinics. A lecture hall and the pathological museum, each 28x46 feet, occupy the north half of the second floor, while the south half contains the laboratories for Physiology. On the third floor to the north is the amphitheatre, 57x46 feet in area and twenty feet in height, with 350 seats. The south half of this floor contains the laboratories of bio­ chemistry. THE NEW LABORATORY BUILDING The building is located directly north of the College of Medicine, with which it is connected on the second floor by a bridge crossing the alley between the two buildings. The Laboratory has four stories and a basement. The ground surface is 70x66 feet, with an east frontage of 70 feet and a north 8 THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY BULLETIN

frontage of 66 feet. On the first floor are the laboratories of Histology and Embryology. Lecture rooms and offices occupy the second floor of the building, while the third and fourth floors are devoted to the laboratory in­ struction in Pathology and Bacteriology, and experimental research work. In connection with these laboratories are private rooms for the instructors and assistants. The Laboratory rooms on the third and fourth floors are 70x55 feet, with ample lights on the north, south and west sides. The laboratories, lecture rooms and dissection rooms are large and commodious and are equipped with everything necessary to the proper teaching of modern medicine. Each student is assigned a desk. He is required to furnish him­ self with a microscope fitted with eye-pieces and the usual number of objectives, one of these being an oil emersion lens. Each student is provided with dishes, glassware, section-lifters, and such other apparatus as is necessary for the work. Sections of histological and pathological specimens prepared by the student dur­ ing the course become his property.

THE LABORATORIES OF THE THIRD AND FOURTH YEARS' WORK The Laboratory of Clinical Diagnosis has a complete general and individual equipment. The Laboratory of Surgical Pathology is of sufficient size and equipment to accommodate a section of twelve to sixteen students. Each student is furnished a desk and working apparatus. A Bausch & Lomb convertible Balopticon projection apparatus has been procured to facilitate the demonstration of those objects in a medical course which are inadequately presented by charts or diagrams. It is of the latest improved type and is adapted to lantern work, the projection of opaque and microscopic sections. The College of Medicine possesses unusual advantages in the matter of clinical facilities. The following hospitals and the College of Dispensary supply material for Clinical instruction: St. Joseph’s Hospital. Douglas County Hospital. College Dispensary. City Emergency Hospital. St. B ernard’s Hospital. St. Catherine’s Hospital. Mercy Hospital. Salvation Army Rescue Home. ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE 9

ST. JOSEPH’S HOSPITAL AND CLINICAL CLERKSHIPS

The Creighton Memorial Hospital (St. Joseph’s) located at Tenth and Castellar Streets, is the largest (380 beds) and best equipped hospital in Nebraska. The visiting staff is chosen exclusively from members of the faculty of the Creighton Medical College. One hun­ dred and ten free beds are set apart for bedside instruction. Daily clinics are held for the students. Courses in the wards of the hospital are open to four-year students. These courses consist of work in the are open to four-year students. These courses consist of work in the wards of the hospital during which time the students serve as Clinical Clerks in medicine, surgery, the specialties and anaesthetics, and become, for the time being, members of the regular staff of the hos­ pital. Each student serves as a Clinical Clerk for the period of twelve weeks and is required, during his period of service, to fulfill all the duties exacted of a Junior Interne. The X-ray Laboratory contains the most modern equipment. The work is done by an expert radiographer. Clinics are held six half-days each week during the entire session of the medical school. The clinical advantages offered are reserved for the benefit of the students of the Creighton College of Medicine.

COLLEGE CLINIC AND DISPENSARY

The Clinical Dispensary occupies the first floor of the south wing of the college building. It is divided into a waiting room for patients aind numerous clinical rooms which communicate directly with the waiting room. Clinics are held morning and afternoon throughout the week during the entire year. The material is utilized for the benefit of the student, and ample opportunity is afforded him to examine patients under the direction of the clinician in charge. A trained nurse is in constant attendance at the dispensary.

ST. BERNARD’S HOSPITAL

St. Bernard’s Hospital, Council Bluffs, has two hundred and fifty beds provided for nervous and insane patients. Here ample opportun­ ity is afforded the student for the study of nervous and mental diseases. 10 THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY BULLETIN

MERCY HOSPITAL Mercy Hospital, Council Bluffs, is one of the adjuncts to the Clinical advantages of this college. Whatever clinical material can be utilized is reserved by this in­ stitution for the benefit of the students of the Creighton College of Medicine. DOUGLAS COUNTY HOSPITAL The Douglas County Hospital has accommodations for 120 pa­ tients; being supported by Douglas County, it is exclusively a charity hospital. The class of patients found here affords an especially fine opportunity to study all forms of rare and chronic diseases.

CITY EMERGENCY HOSPITAL Visits in small sections are made to the City Emergency Hospital for Infectious Diseases.

OBSTETRICAL OUT PATIENT DEPARTMENT Two senior students are assigned to each obstetrical case, and, in the majority of cases, the students are notified some weeks in advance so that they can visit the patients frequently, make the neces­ sary examinations and watch for any abnormal signs that may de­ velop before delivery.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION Admission to the Four-Year Course Candidates for the four-year course in medicine will be admitted upon the following conditions: 1. Presentation of a bachelor’s degree from an approved college or University, provided such degree includes work indicated in schedule below. 2. Presentation of grades covering one year’s work (after January 1, 1918, two years’ college work will be required for admission to the Medical Department) in Biology, Chemistry, Physics and a Modern Language, in addition to an accredited four-year high school course as follow s: ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE 11

A student failing in subjects whose scheduled hours amount to 50 per cent or more, of the total scheduled hours for the year, will be required to repeat the work of the year, and only one such repeti­ tion will be allowed during the course. Any student being absent from more than 20 per cent of the scheduled hours of any course will be conditioned in that course. 4. No student will be admitted to the Senior year whose average grade for the three years preceding is less than 75 per cent. 5. Any student who is conditioned or has failed in a course and takes work in that course with satisfactory results in an acceptable institution, may at the discretion of the head of that particular de­ partment, be required to pass an examination to remove said condition or failure. 6. No student with a failure in any subject will be allowed to enter the Senior year. He may, however, repeat this course under the conditions mentioned in rule five. 7. An opportunity to remove conditions in the finals will be given the week following the opening of school, and in mid-year conditions, the first week of March. 8. All students desiring to remove conditions must communicate with the office. A charge of $3.00 is made for each re-examination in 12 THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY BULLETIN the didactic course: and a charge of $10.00 to $15.00 for a repetition of a part or the whole of the laboratory work. ADVANCED STANDING Time credit is given for attendance at a qualified medical school of high rank. Students who have studied medicine in a recognized school may receive subject credit, provided that they have passed satisfactory ex- aminations in the branches which they have completed, and have satis­ fied the Council that the work they have had is the equivalent of that given in this school. All matters concerning students, such as admission, advance­ ment, advanced standing and special privileges, are settled by the Committee on Credentials and Advanced Standing. EXAMINATIONS Final examinations in all subjects taught in each class are held at the close of each semester. Examinations in courses occupying part of a semester are taken at the conclusion of the subject. The final grade will be the result of the combined examination, class recitations, written quizzes, as well as the general character of the student’s work throughout the term. REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION A candidate must be at least twenty-one years of age and must give satisfactory evidence of good moral character. He must have pursued the study of medicine for four years, and have attended four full courses of lectures of at least eight months each: of these the last must have been in this college.

♦Each student must supply himself with a microscope fitted with eye-pieces and the usual number of objectives, one of these being an oil emersion lens. ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE 13

Tuition and fees are payable in advance and they will not be returned to one who leaves before the end of the semester. For the convenience of the students half the tuition may be paid at the begin­ ning of October, and the other half at the beginning of February. A discount of $5.00 will be allowed on each half yearly payment of tuition made before October 20th and February 20th respectively, making each payment $65, and the year's tuition $130.00. To secure this discount all other fees and dues must be paid. No charge is made for dissecting material, but each student is required to deposit $5.00 at the beginning of the term to cover possible damage done to college property. The amount, less the actual cost of property damaged, will be returned to each student at the end of the session. When possible, loss or damage is charged to the student who is responsible: but in some cases it may be divided among a class or a group of students if the Dean considers such procedure just. The idea is to make every student a guardian of the College property.

ANATOMY

HERMAN VON W. SCHULTE, A. B., M. D., Professor. FRANCIS W. HEAGEY, A. B., M. D., A ssistant Professor. EBEN CAREY, B. S., Instructor. 1. Gross Anatomy. Each student is required to dissect one half of a cadaver under the supervision of instructors. He is expected to keep a note book recording the results of his dissection both verbally and in simple diagrams, so that accurate and thorough personal observation sup­ plemented by his reading may form the basis of his knowledge. In addition there are frequent demonstrations and occasional lectures intended to clarify and systematize the information obtained in the dissecting room and to explain and interpret the more complicated regions of the body which cannot be satisfactorily understood from a single dissection. Great care is taken to afford adequate opportunity and excellent material for dissection and the responsiblity for its utilization is placed squarely upon the student; for only so can he come to the realization that an education is rooted in personal effort and that in the medical sciences to a peculiar degree observation and familiarity at first hand with the material of study are the sure road to knowledge and self-development. Twenty hours a week during the first semester and sixteen hours a week during the second semester of the Freshman year. PROFESSORS SCHULTE AND HEAGEY. 2. Neurology. The course in the anatomy of the nervous system is taken up in two parts, one dealing with gross anatomy of the parts, and the other with the histology of the brain and spinal cord and the relation of these parts from a functional as well as an anatomical point of view. Each student dissects half of a brain and is loaned a set of sections of the cord and brain stem. Note-books are required in addition to the laboratory notes. Four hours a week during the second semester of the Freshman year. PROFESSORS SCHULTE AND HEAGEY. 3. Histology. 4. Embryology. The basis of these courses is a collection of slides, a set of which is loaned to each student and for their return in good condition he is 16 THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY BULLETIN held responsible. These slides are studied and recorded in note-books which the students are required to keep; and this classroom work which is intended to be objective is supplemented by conferences, demonstrations and lectures. In addition the student is given practical work in the preparation of material for microscopic examination. Sixteen hours a week during the first and second half of the first semester of the Freshman year. PROFESSOR SCHULTE AND MR. CAREY. The dissecting room is situated on the top floor of the main build­ ing. It is well lighted and ventilated and is supplied with study col­ lections of bones, models and wet specimens to supplement and facilitate the dissections performed by the student. The course in Histology and Embryology is given on the top floor of the new wing where windows on two sides of the room and large sky-lights afford ample illumination for the microscopical work. The department of Anatomy is actively engaged in research and has large laboratories equipped for investigation in the various branches of morphology which are open to qualified workers for their special problems. Every opportunity and encouragement are given to undergraduates to follow up by special work the problems which arise in connection with their studies, and to interest themselves in the special lines of research which the officers of the department are severally pursuing. Students desiring to engage in original in­ vestigation receive the personal supervision of the Professor of Anatomy and are invited to participate in the department seminar and the scientific conferences of the staff.

BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY SERGIUS MORGULIS, A. M., Ph. D., Professor of Biochemistry and Physiology. WILLIAM A. PERLZWEIG, A. M., Ph. D., Assistant Professor of Bio­ chemistry. The physiological and biochemical laboratories are situated on the second and third floor of the old building. The physiological lab­ oratory is light and spacious, and is well equipped with apparatus for the instruction of medical students. The biochemical laboratory is fitted out to accommodate a large number of students, and is provided with every facility necessary in modern courses of instruction and special work. The course in biochemistry is given during the second semester of the freshman year, inorganic and organic chemistry are prere­ ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE 17 quisites. In this course great pre-eminence is given to the practical work performed by the student himself in the laboratory. 1. General Physiological Chemistry. The course is arranged with the view of familiarizing the student with the fundamental cell constituents, proteins, lipins and carbo­ hydrates; with the principles of physical chemistry in its application to biochemistry; with the composition of various tissues and body fluids. The chemical aspects of digestion, respiration, secretion, and metabolism in general, receive special attention in this course, forming the basis for Physiology 3, with which course it is co-ordinated. Reading of current literature and thesis work are also required, and are assigned to each student by the instructor. Lectures, demonstra­ tions, practical work, recitations and quizzes. Ten hours a week during the second semester. PROFESSORS MORGULIS AND PERLZWEIG. The course in Physiology is given during the first semester of the sophomore year. The course is preceded by courses in anatomy, histology and physiological chemistry which are given in the freshman year. The student is therefore well prepared to undertake the study of the various functions of the organism. In this course emphasis is laid upon the normal activities of the body as the only basis for an understanding of various functional derangements. Reference is, therefore, made wherever possible to the application of physiological facts in medical and surgical practice. The work consists of a systematic series of lectures accompanied by experimental work in the laboratory or class demonstrations. Fre­ quent written and oral quizzes are held throughout the course upon the matter discussed in the lectures or observed in the laboratory. Be­ sides, each student is assigned to read special articles in the current physiological literature or to prepare a thesis upon some definite topic. The practical part of the course is so arranged that wherever possible students work in groups of two, each group being assigned a special table with a complete outfit of apparatus usually employed in the experiments. 2. Physiology of the Neuromuscular Mechanism and of the Special Senses. Lectures, demonstrations, practical exercises, recitations and quizzes. Sixteen hours a week for the first half of the semester. PROFESSOR MORGULIS AND ASSISTANT. 18 THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY BULLETIN

3. Physiology of the Circulation, Respiration, Digestion and Secretion. Lectures, demonstrations, practical exercises, recitations and quizzes. Sixteen hours a week for the second half of the semester. Professor Morgulis and Assistant. 4. Advanced Work in Biochemistry and Physiology. This course is open to students who have had biochemistry and physiology 2 and 3 or their equivalent. The scope of the work is not limited, and the facilities of the laboratories will be given freely to those who may desire either to work up some special topic or extend their study beyond the elementary course. The course will be open to physicians who may wish to acquire knowledge of the most recent analytical procedures. There is no set time for this course, all in­ struction being individual, and arrangements must be made with the professor in charge. PROFESSORS MORGULIS AND PERLZWEIG.

The course also includes a thorough drill in the system of weights and measures used in dispensing. A monthly written test is given for review of the month’s work. ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE 21

2. Principles of Prescribing. This course consists of detailed instruction and practical work in the fundamental principles of prescription writing. Courses one and two are given four hours a week during the second semester of the Sophomore years. PROFESSOR MUIRHEAD. 3. Pharmacology. This course consists of lectures, recitations, laboratory experi­ ments and demonstrations. It occupies seven and one-half hours per week during the second semester of the Sophomore year. In the laboratory the students work in small groups of two or three per­ forming experiments, which illustrate the chemical and physical characteristics of the most important medicinal drugs as well as their pharmacological action on animals. Each student observes and makes notes of the results of the experiments, and must present a carefully kept note book at the end of the course. Experiments which are not suitable for the small groups, on account of the difficult technique re­ quired, are demonstrated to larger groups or to the entire class. Each student, however, is required to record his own observations in his notebook. The lecture course is given conjointly with the laboratory, and systematically covers the essentials of pharmacology, thus correlating the principles underlying the action of drugs with the laboratory demonstrations. A certain amount of collateral reading is required and during the course each student must present a concise abstract of at least one original research article from current literature. Six hours a week during the second semester of the Sophomore year. PROFESSOR MUIRHEAD. 4. (Elective) Advanced Pharmacology. This course is open to students who have completed satisfactorily the three preceding courses. It is designed as an introduction to the investigation of pharmacological problems such as the action of new drugs or a more accurate study of those imperfectly known, with the designing of new methods for tne study of their action. The student works under the direction of the professor but is encouraged to do original work. 5. Dispensing and Prescribing. The course occupies one and a half hours a week during the first semester of third year and consists of instruction in writing pre­ 22 THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY BULLETIN

scriptions for definite therapeutic purposes, and laboratory work in compounding some of the medicines prescribed thus developing a practical knowledge of drugs and the combinations of drugs they are using, and of incompatibilities.

THERAPEUTICS The course in Clinical Therapeutics consists of lectures, quizzes and dispensary work extending through the Junior and Senior years. The first part of the lecture course is designed to supply the in­ formation acquired from preceptors, the remainder consists of the ap­ plication of the scientific data obtained in the course of Pharmacology, as well as mechanical, physical hygiene methods. Immunity, serum and vaccine therapy wTill be discussed in their relation to physiology and pathology. Clinical Therapeutics—Defined outlines of treatment. Prescription must be prepared by each student from case histories in the class room as well as case histories taken by him in the dispensary.

MEDICINE Including Physical Diagnosis and Therapeutics ARTHUR D. DUNN, A. B., M. D., Professor and Director of Medicine. BRYAN M. RILEY, A. M., M. D., Professor of Medicine. JAMES M. BARSTOW, M. D., Professor of Therapeutics and Clinical Psychiatry. HENRY M. AKIN, A. B., M. D., Professor of Gastro-Enterology. ADOLPH SACHS, M. D., Professor of Physical Diagnosis and Associate Professor of Medicine. NICHOLAS F. STEINER, M. D., Assistant Professor of Medicine. WARREN Y. THOMPSON, B. S., M. D., Instructor in Physical Diagnosis. JOSEPH D. McCa r t h y , M. D., A ssistant in Medicine. ARTHUR L. BARR, M. D., A ssistant in Medicine. The purpose of the Department of Medicine is essentially to de­ velop methods of anatomical and physicological thinking as applied at the bedside in diagnosing and treating. Physical and clinical diagnosis, pathology and symptomatology are utilized as means toward this end.

PHYSICAL DIAGNOSIS—NORMAL Didactic Course—Assigned text-book work is given, and in the recitations the elementary physical principles and normal anatomical ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE 23 relationships are emphasized. The didactic work is supplemented by demonstrations and practice on normal individuals. The technique of palpitation, percussion and ausculation is dwelt upon. Practical Course—Individual training in the methods of physical examination and the recognition of normal findings in the healthy human subject. To this end the clinical lectures and practical demon­ strations will be utilized. Small sections will be taken to the wards of St. Joseph’s and County Hospitals, where selected cases will be shown and opportunity given the student to acquaint himself with abnormal findings. Each student will devote twenty-four hourse to this work. Individual training in the physical examination of the eye, ear, nose and throat, is also given.

CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS Didactic Course of two hours for eight weeks is devoted to the explanation and demonstration of the methods most commonly em­ ployed. On the completion of this introductory course each section of the class will proceed with the laboratory work. Laboratory Course, thirty-two hours of individual work each section. The Laboratory of Clinical Diagnosis is located on the same floor with the dispensary rooms. The laboratory is equipped to ac­ commodate ten students. A desk, locker, blood examining instruments, reagents and stains and all necessary apparatus are furnished each student. In addition to these, the laboratory has a general equipment of a variety of apparatus and instruments required for all the recog­ nized methods of physical, chemical and bacteriological examinations. Each student will have practice in macroscopic, microscopic, chemical and bacteriological examinations of blood, urine, stomach, stomach contents, feces, exudates, transudates, and of tissues removed for investigation. Interpretation of laboratory findings will always be held uppermost. The technique of the Wasserman reaction will be shown and its biological principles and interpretation discussed.

MEDICINE Third and Fourth Years The third year work is largely given over to the quiz lecture and to the dispensary. The text-book assignments are made for quizzes, and the student is held rigidly to the assigned subject. The instructor 24 THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY BULLETIN supplements and develops the text and an effort is made to impart to the student the knowledge of disease that is necessary for the inter­ pretation of signs and symptoms. The fourth year work is chiefly clinical. Didactic lectures with occasional quizzes are given on those diseases which either possess largely a theoretical interest, or which do not lend themselves well to bedside work, or which are sufficiently uncommon to make adequate demonstration uncertain. The medical work is brought as largely as possible to the bedside and thus the student comes into intimate contact with the patient and with the manifestations of diseases. Cases demonstrated in the clinical lectures, wherever possible, have been studied by groups of students and these students are obliged to take part in the demonstration and in the development of diagnosis. The student’s view of the case is always insisted upon and he is carefully quizzed as to case history, findings, methods of examination, on the disease itself, on allied con­ ditions, and upon its differential diagnosis. His medical reasoning is given careful consideration. In this manner each student comes in personal contact with a goodly variety of cases during the year and is grounded in the fundamental methods of case study. The Clinical Instruction at the hospital is given to the third and fourth year students. Each class meets at different hours for the Amphitheatre Clinics. Bedside and clinical conferences are given to each section of the third and fourth year classes. Students are assigned patients and are required to make a physical and laboratory examination of their patients, to systematically record their findings, arrive at a diagnosis and to suggest the treatment. The patient with the case history will then be presented to the instructor and clinical class for discussion. The instructor finally expresses his opinion of the case and the best method of treatment. At the College Dispensary both the third and fourth year classes are separated into small sections and are personally trained in the methods of diagnosis and treatment.

Third Year Didactic Course. The principles and practice of medicine con­ sists chiefly of text-books, recitations on assigned subjects, three hours each wreek for two semesters. Hospital Clinical Course. Clinical lectures at Douglas County Hospital two hours each week two semesters and at St. Joseph’s Hospital two hours each week during the second semester.

Each section devotes about 16 hours to this work and consists of bedside conference, and examination of patients including the various laboratory diagnostic methods; the work is mostly personal. College Dispensary Clinics, one and a half hours daily for eight weeks for each section of the class.

AUTOPSIES Effort is made to demonstrate as many cases as possible. During the last year members of the Senior class had the opportunity of seeing 15 to 20 cases that had been demonstrated in the clinical course, thus correlating symptomatology and morbid anatomy. This work is given at irregular hours and upon notification to the class. MEDICAL LAW AND MEDICAL ETHICS Fourth Year Right of state to regulate practice of medicine; unprofessional conduct; malpractice litigation; physician’s right to compensation; duty to answer calls; partnership liability; degree of skill and care required.

OBSTETRICS ALONZO E. MACK, M. D., Professor. SAMUEL McCLENEGHAN, M. D., Associate Professor.

Third and Fourth Years Lectures and Demonstrations. The subject of Obstetricts is taught by lectures, recitations and demonstrations upon the manikin, by drawings and charts, and by attendance upon clinical cases of labor. The didactic work is done mainly in the third year, the clinical study in the fourth year. Cases of labor among the poor of the city are ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE 27 referred to two members of the Senior class, and they, assisted by the professor or one of his assistants, attend the case, thus giving the student full clinical advantage over circumstances approaching more nearly to what he might expect to meet in actual practice than if he were attending merely hospital cases. The two students assigned are required to make frequent visits and to examine the case as to the presentation, and watch for abnormal complications that may arise. They attend the case during the labor and take care of their patient during convalescence, and at the con­ clusion make a detailed report in writing. Each student is required to conduct not less than eight obstetrical cases.

Third Year Didactic Course, chiefly text-book recitations on assigned subjects covering the anatomy and physiology of the female generative organs. The physiology of pregnancy, labor and the puerperium. Four recita­ tions a week for two semesters. Operative Obstetrics. Consist of four to six normal deliveries demonstrated to the class in the hospital amphitheatre.

Manikin exercises eight hours each section of the class. Practical demonstration of normal and abnormal cases of labor in the hospital amphitheatre. Average four to eight cases during the term. Out-Patient Service. Each pair of students to attend at least six cases of labor. At the Rescue Home, Twenty-fourth and Spaulding streets, each member of the Senior class will be shown from two to three obstetrical cases during the term and will be given an opportunity to familiarize himself with normal and abnormal labor. The work in this institution is under the care of a competent and skilled physician, Dr. Samuel McCleneghan, who, besides giving clinical instruction, will also, at the latter part of the term, give a quiz course on clinical work done in this department. In addition to this, the Out-Patient Obstetrical 28 THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY BULLETIN

The course in this department systematically covers the entire field of surgery. Instruction by lectures, recitations and clinical demonstrations in hospital amphitheatre, college clinic rooms and laboratory. The didactic work given during the two years covers the entire book which is required as the text, supplemented by the lectures of additional surgical literature and personal experience. The didactic surgical course is so divided that the combination comprises a sys­ tematic and thorough course in surgery. The more elementary parts are taken up during the Sophomore year, and the remaining surgical subjects completed during the Junior and Senior years. The course of Clinical Surgery at the hospital consists of clinical lectures, minor and major operations and orthopedic surgery. The course includes bedside treating for each section of the class. Each student will be required to examine and record the results of his ex­ amination of a number of surgical cases, and to suggest the indicated treatment. The case history will then be submitted to the instructor in charge and the necessary additions and corrections made. Under the guidance of an instructor the students will have the privilege of administering anaesthetics including nitros oxide and oxygen, assisting at operations and learning operating room technique. These opportun­ ities are offered to each member of the Senior Class. At the College Dispensary Clinics, each student will become familiar with the methods of case taking, minor operations, bandaging, dressing wounds and fractures; the surgical clinic is always abundant­ ly patronized by a great variety of surgical patients.
