Robert Mecham appointed Alumni Endowed Professor Robert P. Mecham, Ph.D., professor of cell biology and physiology and of medicine, has been named an Alumni Endowed Professor in the Department of Cell Biology and Physiology. His ap- pointment was announced by Philip D. Stahl, Ph.D., professor and head of the Department of Cell Biology and Physi- ology. Alumni professorships are funded by unrestricted gifts from medical alumni and former house staff and by gifts from friends of the School of Medicine. The minimum endowment for each position is $1 million. The six alumni professor- ships now in existence are part of a program to create one such position in each medical school department. The executive council of the Washington University Medical Center Alumni Association initiated the program in 1978 to help attract and retain renowned physicians and scientists. "The endowed professorship program is one of the many ways in which our Left to right, the student creators of the new medical literary magazine Hippocrene, Petros Karakousis, Kathleen Page, dedicated alumni support the medical Vijay Shankaran, Han Kim and Thalia Farazi, help with its mailing.
