2 / Opening It was nearly twenty-five years ago-May 27, 1969-that Governor Preston E. Smith signed the legislation enabling the creation of the Texas Tech Univer ity School of Medicine. Three years later, a remarkably short time in which to develop a comprehensive medical education program, the School of Medicine opened its doors to 36 freshmen and 25 junior . It was August 21, 1972. The first class graduated in 1974.
In 1979 the name of the School was changed to the Texas Tech University Health Scienc Center, paving the way for the development of two additional schools. Accordingly, a School of Nursing was approved and the first nursing students were admitted in 1981 . That san1e year the School of Allied Health was funded and phy ical therapy students began arriving twelve months later. By 1983 two additional allied health programs-medical technology (now referred to as clinical laboratory cience) and occupational therapy- were initiated. Ten year later Tech's Department of Speech & Hearing Sciences was transferred into the School of Allied Health and renamed the Department of Communication Disorders. The May 1994 graduation marks the first HSC commencement for these students.
In 1987 the School of Medicine formalized an integrated dual doctoral degree program, one leading to the Doctor of Medicine degree, the other to the Doctor of Philosophy degree. This program prepares students to be physician as well as modern biomedical scientists. As a result, another mile tone has been read1ed as the Health Sciences Center graduates its .fir t three candidates from the MD. /Ph.D. program in the May 1994 graduation.
Today, Te as Tech University Health Sciences Center is a dynamic, multi-campus smool with educationaJ programs in Amarillo, El Paso, Lubbock and Odessa and a student enrollment of nearly 1300 and rising. With this graduating class, the institution boasts 2574 alumni, including phy icians, scientific researchers, nurses and allied health professionals practicing in nearly every state of the union

Graduation / 135 The First M.D./Ph.D. Students To address the national shortage of physician scientists, the School of Medicine in 1987 formalized an integrated dual doctoral degree program in which a few students could simultaneously earn two degrees, one leading to the Doctor of Medicine degree and the other leading to the Doctor of Philosophy degree. The Doctor of Medicine program prepares students to become physicians and the Doctor of Philoosophy programs prepares the students to become modern biomedical scientists. The dual degree program is completed in three phases. First, the student completes the first two years of the preclinical portion of the medical school Curriculum which includes some courses that apply to both degree programs. Second, the student completes all the remaining requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy degree including the completion of a comprehensive research project and preparation of a dissertation that describes that research. This phase can require two to four years. Finally, the student returns to the medicine curriculum to complete the remaining two year clinical phase of their training. The 1994 Graduation marked the graduation of the first three students who have completed this integrated dual doctoral
program at the Health Sciences Center. Top: Kenny Brantley, M.D. Bottom: (L-R) Rodney Trotter, M.D. and Michael Rice, M.D.
