ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS.
The requirement for admission to the first year of the Department of
Medicine is a four-year high-school education or its full equivalent, and two
years of work in a college of arts and sciences approved by the Council on
Medical Education of the American Medical Association, as follows:
I. HIGH SCHOOL REQUIREMENTS.
The following are the minimum high school requirements of the American
Medical Association and the Association of American Medical Colleges and must
be satisfied for admission to all Class A medical schools. Students entering the
College of the University of Virginia for their premedical college work must
also satisfy the regular entrance requirements for admission to the College. (See
the General Catalogue.) These differ from the requirements stated below only in
that 2½ units of mathematics (1½ in Algebra and 1 in Plane Geometry) are required.
(a) For admission to the two-year premedical college course, students
shall have completed a four-year course of at least fifteen units in a standard
accredited high school or other institution of standard secondary school
grade, or have the equivalent as demonstrated by examinations conducted
by the College Entrance Examination Board or by the authorized examiner
of a standard college or university which has been approved by the Council
on Medical Education of the American Medical Association.
(b) Credits for admission to the premedical college course may be
granted for the subjects shown in the following list and for any other subject
counted by a standard accredited high school as part of the requirements
for its diploma, provided that at least eleven units must be offered in
groups I-V:
Group I. English. (Three units required)
Literature and Composition.
Group II. Foreign Languages. (Two units required, both of which must be
in the same language)
Latin, Greek, French, German, Spanish, Italian, or other modern foreign
language.
Group III. Mathematics. (Two units required)
Elementary Algebra, Advanced Algebra, Plane Geometry, Solid Geometry,
Trigonometry.
Group IV. History. (One unit required)
Ancient History, Medieval and Modern History, English History,
American History, Civil Government.
Group V. Science.
Botany, Zoölogy, Chemistry, Physics, Physiography, Physiology, Astronomy,
Geology.
Group VI. Miscellaneous.
Agriculture, Bookkeeping, Business Law, Commercial Geography, Domestic
Science, Drawing, freehand and mechanical, Economics and
Economic History, Manual Training, Music—appreciation or harmony.
A unit is the credit value of at least thirty-six weeks' work of four or
five recitation periods per week, each recitation period to be not less than
forty minutes.
II. PREMEDICAL COLLEGE COURSE.
The requirements given below are strictly minimum requirements. Premedical
students are advised to take more than thirty session-hours of college
work, either by spending an additional year in college or by taking thirty-three
or thirty-six session-hours during their two years as college students. Entrance
conditions of any kind whatsoever are absolutely prohibited and no substitution
can be allowed for any required subject.
In addition to the high-school work specified above, a candidate for admission
to the Department of Medicine must present evidence of the completion
in a manner satisfactory to this medical school of at least thirty session-hours
of collegiate work in a college approved by the Council on Medical
Education of the American Medical Association. A session-hour is the
credit value of one hour a week of lecture or recitation or two hours a week
of laboratory work throughout a session of at least thirty-two weeks, exclusive
of holidays. The subjects included in the thirty session-hours of college
work should be in accordance with the following schedule:
Required Subjects:
| Session-hours. | |
| General Inorganic Chemistry (a) | 4 |
| Organic Chemistry (b) | 3 |
| Physics (c) | 4 |
| Biology (d) | 4 |
| English Composition and Literature (e) | 3 |
| Other non-science subjects (f) | 6 |
Subjects Strongly Urged:
French or German, Advanced Botany or Advanced Zoölogy, Psychology,
Advanced Algebra, Solid Geometry, and Trigonometry, additional
courses in Chemistry.
Other Suggested Electives:
English (additional), Economics, History, Sociology, Political Science,
Logic, Mathematics, Latin, Greek, Drawing.
Credit Not Given for an Incomplete Course.
Credit can be accepted only when the student has a clear record on the
course consisting of 3 hours lecture and six hours laboratory weekly for
three trimesters and the student passes on two trimesters but fails on the
third, no credit for admission to medicine can be given for the portion of the
subject passed, even though the credit value of this work is four session-hours.
In all cases the student must have completed the entire subject for
which he is registered. Deficiencies of this kind may however be made up by
obtaining a clear record in the portion of the subject in which the failure has
occurred, without repeating the entire course.
REQUIREMENTS IN INDIVIDUAL COLLEGIATE SUBJECTS.
(a) General Inorganic Chemistry. Four session-hours are required, including
two session-hours of laboratory work. In the interpretation of this
rule work in qualitative analysis may be counted as general inorganic chemistry.
It is desirable that more time than this be given to general chemistry and
especially that either the elements of physical chemistry be included in a 6
session-hour course in this subject or a supplementary course in elementary
physical chemistry be taken.
Students are also advised when their premedical work extends over more
than two sessions to take at least four session-hours of qualitative analysis
and two session-hours of quantitative analysis.
(b) Organic Chemistry. Three session-hours are required of which at
least one must be laboratory work. Four session-hours including two session-hours
of laboratory work are recommended as giving better preparation
in organic chemistry.
(c) Physics. Four session-hours required, of which at least one must
be laboratory work. It is urged that this course be preceded by a course
in trigonometry and solid geometry.
(d) Biology. Four session-hours required, of which two must consist
of laboratory work. The requirement may be satisfied by a course of four
session-hours in general biology or zoölogy, or by courses of two session-hours
each in zoölogy and botany, but not by botany alone. Courses in
physiology and hygiene, sanitation, bacteriology, histology, and other similar
work covered in the medical curriculum cannot be accepted as part of the
premedical college requirements in biology.
(e) English Composition and Literature. The usual introductory college
course of three session-hours, or its equivalent, is required.
(f) Non-Science Subjects. Of the thirty session-hours required as the
measurement of two years of college work, at least nine, including three
session-hours of English, should be in subjects other than the physical,
chemical, or biologic sciences.
Although not required for admission to the medical school, premedical
students are strongly urged to acquire the basic knowledge of French or German—and
with a little practice to read with ease the medical literature published in these
languages. Apart from the cultural value of the study of a foreign language
and the use which may be found for French and German in the study of
medicine, a reading knowledge of one or both of these languages is required
for certain desirable post-graduate scholarships and fellowships. When the
student presents for admission to the premedical college course 2 units of
high school work in either language, the usual 3 session-hour "second year"
college course will amply give this basic knowledge. When he begins the
study of the language in college, he should take at least 4, and preferably 5,
session-hours in the language.
College courses in Physical Training and in Military Training or Military
Science will not be counted towards the thirty session-hours required
for admission to medicine; nor will required courses in Bible and Biblical
Literature be counted, unless the course has a credit value of at least three
session-hours for one session.
No entrance conditions whatever can be allowed nor can any substitutions
be made for the required subjects. Premedical students in other colleges
and universities who are considering the possibility of entering upon
their medical studies in this university are urged to have the authorities of
the University of Virginia pass officially upon their academic credit early
in their last premedical college year and in no case later than June 1, of
that year. Deficiencies may be discovered in this way in time to remove
them before the following September. Such students will incur no obligation
to enter this medical school. The prohibition of entrance conditions
in all Class A medical colleges makes it especially important for the student
to be absolutely sure six months or more beforehand that the course he is
taking will admit him to the study of medicine. Many deficiencies can be
made up by work in summer schools.
In planning two years of premedical college work students are advised
to take English, mathematics (solid geometry, plane trigonometry,
and advanced algebra), biology, and general inorganic chemistry the first
year; and organic chemistry, physics, foreign language, and one or more
electives the second year. This arrangement of studies is advised because
mathematics should precede physics and general inorganic chemistry must
precede organic chemistry. Those who have to take four or more session-hours
of college work in foreign language may find it advisable to take
foreign language both years and take the mathematics in a summer school
following the first premedical college session.
Admission with Advanced Standing.—Students are admitted to advanced
standing in the second and third years under the following conditions:
1. Satisfaction of the requirements for entrance into this department at
the time of entrance of the class to which the applicant seeks admission.
2. The presentation of a certificate of honorable dismissal from the
school last attended.
3. The presentation of the complete record of the student in the school
of Medicine. This record will be submitted to the action of the Faculty
Committee on Advanced Standing, and the admission of the student,
together with the terms of admission, will be determined by this committee.
The Committee on Advanced Standing will not in general consider
favorably applications which are not accompanied by a distinctly good record
in the school previously attended. Only in case of illness or equivalent cause
will it admit a student to a year in which he has failed elsewhere and then
only when, in the judgment of his previous instructors, he would have succeeded
but for his illness.
Whenever a student is admitted to advanced standing he must take and
pass the full work of the class to which he is admitted unless by permission
of the Dean he substitutes for one or more of the regular courses of his
class other courses of approximately the same credit value.
Students are not received with advanced standing to the fourth year
class.
Limitation of Numbers and Reservation of Places.—The number of
students in the first-year class is limited to sixty-five; and in the second,
third, and fourth year classes to sixty each. Reservation of a place, if desired
by the applicant, can be made beforehand on the conditions hereinafter
described.
At the time of registration, applicants will be registered in the order in
which they present themselves, until all vacancies are filled. Applicants who
have not made reservations, as described below, are therefore advised to
apply for registration at 9 o'clock of the first day of registration (September
17, 1925).
Any applicant whose record has been endorsed by the Dean of the Department
of Medicine as entitling him to admission to the class to which he
seeks admittance, may at any time after June 25 and before the registration
period in September have a place reserved for him until 12:00 noon of the
first day of registration by depositing with the Bursar the sum of $50.00 in
part payment of the tuition fee. A reservation so made can be cancelled only in
exceptional cases. In case a student who has obtained a reservation fails to
register, the deposit of $50.00 will be forfeited to the University unless, in
case of illness or equivalent cause, the Dean of the Department of Medicine
directs that it be returned.
By the deposit, under similar conditions, of the entire fees for the year
a student may have a place reserved for him until 5 p. m. of the last day of
registration.
Women over twenty years of age are admitted to the medical department
by satisfying the entrance requirements specified above.
FACILITIES FOR AND METHODS OF INSTRUCTION.
There are well-equipped laboratories for the study of biochemistry, gross
anatomy, histology and embryology, bacteriology and pathology, physiology,
pharmacology, materia medica, and clinical diagnosis. These laboratories
are primary considerations. The number of hours assigned to laboratory
subjects is quite large and affords ample time for thorough study by the
best methods. The student is brought into close contact with teachers who
are both willing and able to guide him; he gains a very large part of his
knowledge at first hand and by his own exertions, and thus acquires the
habit of working out things for himself; he becomes self-reliant, a quality
essential to the practice of his difficult profession. Trained in this manner,
he acquires an understanding of the medical sciences and the ability to apply
the facts of these sciences to the subsequent study of disease. For
these reasons the great fundamental sciences receive the utmost consideration,
constituting the entire work of the first two years.
The methods of clinical instruction are based upon the belief that no
clinical teaching is efficient which is not governed by essentially the same
principles as those which govern the best laboratory teaching. This instruction
is accordingly designed to enforce with the individual student a careful,
thorough, face-to-face study of disease and its management. The facilities
afforded by the University Hospital and Out-Patient Department are
described on a subsequent page. After two sessions devoted to laboratory
training, the student is introduced in the third year to the study of disease
in living persons. In the Out-Patient Department and in the Hospital he
learns the methods of examining patients, of diagnosing their diseases, and
of instituting rational treatment; and he learns these things in much the
same way as he studied in the laboratory, that is to say, by doing them
himself under the direction and criticism of the instructors. This practical
training is accompanied by a systematic study of the various subjects by
means of lectures, textbooks, and recitations. With this preparation the
student is ready to enter upon the hospital work in his fourth year. Here
he has advantages for clinical training similar to those enjoyed by internes.
Each clinical patient on admission to the hospital is assigned to a student,
and that patient is regarded as his "case." The student conducts a complete
examination, records his observations in a scientific manner, makes a
diagnosis, states his view as to the treatment indicated, and keeps a complete
record of the case, all under the advice and criticism of the physician or
surgeon in charge. He is expected to keep himself informed of the progress
of the case throughout its course. If it is one requiring surgical treatment,
he assists at the operation, and thus is able to follow all the procedures of
the operator at close range. In addition, students make frequent visits to
the wards with the attending physicians and surgeons, during which visits
the nature, treatment, and progress of various cases are gone over in detail.
To carry out this method of clinical instruction the hospital had last year
over 3,800 cases. The patients of the Blue Ridge Sanatorium afford additional
material for clinical instruction. Since the number of students
in each class is relatively small, it is clear that the department offers capable
young men clinical advantages which are distinctly exceptional.
Opportunities are offered in the third and fourth years for more extended
after graduation.
At the meetings of the Medical Journal Club reviews of important articles
and results of original research are presented by the instructors and
by invited guests. These meetings are open to the students.
Registrar's Records of Student's Work.—The results of the work
of each student are recorded in the Registrar's office in such manner as to
show (1) the grade received on each course, (2) whether the student has or
has not absolved the course and, if not, what is necessary to obtain a clear
record and admit to dependent subjects, and (3) a valuation in "honor
points" of the results of the work for each session.
1. The grade received on each course. These grades with their percentage
equivalents are as follows:
| 1 + | = 95-100 per cent |
| 1 | = 90- 94 per cent |
| 2 | = 85- 89 per cent |
| 3 | = 80- 84 per cent |
| 4 | = 70- 79 per cent |
| 5 | = below 70 per cent |
The passing grade is 3. A grade of 4 entitles the student to a condition,
as explained below. A condition may or may not be given at the discretion
of the professor in charge, on a grade of 5.
No passing grades are reported to the Registrar's office on didactic work
unless the laboratory or clinical part of the course is completed in a satisfactory
manner; nor are any grades reported when the student is deficient
until the deficiency has been made up.
3. Whether the student has or has not absolved the course, and, if not,
what is required to obtain a clear record and admit to dependent subject.
This is indicated in the following terms:
Passed (P) indicates the satisfactory completion of the course and admits
to all dependent subjects.
Conditioned (C) means that to obtain a clear record on the course the
student must pass a special examination. Failure to take or to pass this examination
is equivalent to a record of "failed." The record "conditioned" is
not given in fourth year subjects, except in case of illness or other equivalent
cause approved by the faculty.
A student may be conditioned on any examination because of failure to
maintain a reasonable standard of English composition.
Deficient (D) indicates that part of the required laboratory or clinical
work of the course has not been completed. Upon the satisfactory completion
of this work within the time and in the manner prescribed by the professor
in charge, the student receives the record "passed;" otherwise the
record is "failed" on the entire course.
Failed (F) indicates that the course must be repeated; except that when
the laboratory or other practical work has been satisfactorily performed, the
professor in charge may, at his discretion, excuse the student from repeating
the same; and, by special vote of the faculty, the student may be granted
optional attendance upon the course, in whole or in part. In general, a
student who is repeating a course will be required to attend all the exercises
of the course, and will not be excused from any exercise thereof because of
schedule conflicts with more advanced work.
Absence from a regular examination, when excused because of illness
or equivalent cause gives a record of conditioned: if not excused, a record
of failed.
3. A valuation of the general results of the work on each course and of
the student's work for the entire session. Honor points.
This is expressed in honor points.
Each course is valued in the usual manner in terms of session-hours.
An honor point (or simply a point) may be defined as the honor value of
one-half session-hour of a course on which a grade of 2 has been received;
the honor value becomes 2 for each half session-hour of a course on which
1 has been received and 2½ for each half session-hour on which a grade of
1+ has been received. Thus for each session-hour of a complete course:
A grade of 3 gives no honor points.
A grade of 2 gives 2 honor points.
A grade of 1 gives 4 honor points.
A grade of 1 + gives 5 honor points.
A grade of 4 subtracts 2 honor points.
A grade of 5 subtracts 4 honor points.
No honor points are given on a course on which a condition or failure
has been received at the time of the final examination on the course; except
that, in case of illness or equivalent cause, the results of re-examination or
of repetition of the course—instead of the record on the completion of the
course—may be made the basis of estimating honor points.
Students who receive on the entire curriculum of any one year of
medical study, or its equivalent, a total of 40 honor points have optional attendance
on all the didactic work of the next session.
Special Regulations governing Advancement and Registration.
Save by special vote of the Medical Faculty to the contrary, the following
records at the close of the regular session in June require repetition of the entire
work of the year.
For first year students:
1. Failure in two subjects.
2. Failure in one subject and Conditions in two subjects.
4. Conditions in four subjects.
For second and third year students:
1. Failure in one subject and Condition in one subject.
2. Conditions in three subjects.
Save by special vote of the Medical Faculty to the contrary a clear record
on all first and second year subjects at the time of registration is required for
admission to the work of the third year.
The clause in the above rules, "save by special vote of the Medical
Faculty to the contrary" refers solely to "illness or equivalent cause." It
does not refer to the necessity for summer occupation or to any other than
the most weighty reasons for excuse from the operations of these rules.
Generally the Faculty will take the initiative in allowing exceptions to these
rules.
A student may not take any course, either in whole or in part (as explained
under the above definition of failed) more than twice. A second record of
failed on the same course involves withdrawal from the Department of Medicine.
Candidates for the degree of Doctor of Medicine, who have less than
one full year's work to complete, may be required to take such additional
work and to pass such additional examinations as the Medical Faculty may
prescribe. This additional work may be selected from any of the courses given
in the Department of Medicine, even when such prescribed courses have
previously been taken and passed by the candidate in question.
Certificates of Attendance.—Students who attend the whole regular
course of one or more of the four years are entitled to an official statement
under the seal of the University, showing all courses for which the student
was registered each year as a medical student and the record (see above under
"Regulations") with the grade received on each course for which he was
registered. These statements will also contain any special faculty votes affecting
the student's registration in this school.
In no case will the University give an official certificate of the completion
of a part of a course. The professor in charge may, at his discretion,
make a personal statement by letter to the head of the same department in
another medical school of the work done by the student in his course; but
he must at the same time clearly state that this letter does not give credit in
this medical school.
Requirements for Graduation.—The degree of Doctor of Medicine is
conferred by the University of Virginia upon candidates who have complied
with the entrance requirements of this department; attended a regular
medical course of four years of at least eight months each, the last two
of which years must have been at this institution; and have satisfactorily
completed all of the subjects included in the medical course.
Examinations.—These are in writing, accompanied in many subjects by
individual practical examinations. Examinations may be held only during
the regular examination periods at the end of each term or during the
is in progress; provided this rule is not to be interpreted to prohibit unannounced
written tests or regular daily or weekly tests which count on
the class standing of students. The regular examinations are held at
stated periods during the session. In addition, examinations are held each
year during the week immediately preceding the beginning of lectures. To
the latter are admitted:
1. Students of the previous session who, from illness or other equivalent
cause approved by the faculty, were unable to present themselves for
examination in any particular subject at the regular time.
2. Students who at the regular examination in any first, second, or third
year subject of the preceding session have attained a grade less than eighty per
cent., but as much as seventy per cent., on one or more subjects, as explained in
a preceding paragraph; or any student who has received the record conditioned
on a course taken in this university.
3. Certain applicants for advanced standing who are required to take
examinations by the Committee on Advanced Standing.
The usual period for special or conditioned examinations is in September
during the week of registration; but such examinations may be scheduled,
at the option of the professor in charge, for any other time, provided
regular class work is not in progress and also provided all students entitled
to take examination agree to the change of date. For a special or condition
examination held at any other time than that assigned for all students entitled
thereto a fee of five dollars is charged. This fee must be paid to the
Bursar before the examination is held.
In all courses in which there is practical work, either in the laboratory
or in the outpatient department or wards of the hospital, two records
are returned to the Registrar's office for each student; one of these
records is for the practical laboratory or clinical work in which the record
is P(assed), D(eficient), or F(ailed), the other record is for the didactic
work, including the final examinations—in which case the record is
P(assed), C(onditioned), D(eficient), or F(ailed), with the approximate
percentage grade. To obtain a clear record on the course a student must
have a record of P(assed) both on practical and on didactic work; in no
case will the two grades be averaged. No record whatever is given on
didactic work unless there is a record of P(assed) on practical work nor will
any record be given on practical work until a clear record is obtained
on didactic work; failure on practical work gives a record of F(ailed) on the
entire course.
The Fall Examinations for 1925-1926 begin September 14 and close September
19. Students entitled to admission to these examinations will be
informed of the date of examination by the Dean.
Expenses.—The fees for instruction are 1, the tuition fee; 2, the university
to medical attention, etc.; and 3, special laboratory fees, as specified below:
| FIRST YEAR |
SECOND YEAR |

The minimum for necessary living expenses, including room, heat, light,
furniture, service, board, books, and laundry, is estimated at $400.
In the course in Biochemistry, a deposit of $10 is required to cover cost
of breakage.
Voluntary Withdrawal from the University requires the written consent
of the Dean of the University and the dean of the department in which
the student is registered. When a permit is granted upon the University
Physician's certificate that withdrawal is necessary on account of ill health,
which must not be due to dissolute conduct, the fees are returned pro rata. Under
no other circumstances will there be a return of fees.
Combined Degrees in Arts (or Science) and Medicine.—Students who
have credit for the forty-eight session-hours of the group electives required
in this university for the cultural baccalaureate degrees in arts and
science may substitute for twelve session-hours of electives-at-large the
first-year course in the Department of Medicine and receive the degree of
Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Sciences at the end of the year. For further
information, see the General Catalogue of the University.
The University offers also the degree of Bachelor of Science in Medicine.
This degree has recently been placed in charge of the Medical Faculty.
It is awarded on the recommendation of the Medical Faculty after the
completion of the second year of the medical curriculum to students who
(1) present 33 session-hours of acceptable work in premedical academic
subjects (whether taken in this university or elsewhere) as specified below:
(2) complete the first two years of the medical course in this University
with grades in general higher than the lowest passing grade; and (3) demonstrate
by examination a reading knowledge of medical French and German.
(1) Premedical Academic Subjects.—These must include:
| One year of College English | 3 session-hours |
| College Algebra, Solid Geometry, Plane Trigonometry | 3 session-hours |
| Physics, Chemistry, and Biology | 24 session-hours |
With minimum requirements in each subject as follows:
| (a) | General Chemistry (including in this term analytical or physical chemistry) |
6 session-hours |
| (b) | Organic Chemistry | 4 session-hours |
| (c) | General Physics | 4 session-hours |
| (d) | Biological Science | 6 session-hours |
| Elective in subjects other than physics, chemistry and biology |
3 session-hours |
(2) First two years of the Medical Curriculum, completed with a record
of 30 honor points on first year subjects and 40 honor points on second year
subjects.
(3) Reading knowledge of Medical French and German.—This will be
tested by examination consisting of the translation of passages from textbooks
of Anatomy and Histology, Biochemistry, Physiology, and Pathology.
No specific college work is required although the equivalent of 3 session-hour
college courses in each of these languages is desirable and may be
offered as part of the premedical credits. The vocabulary of medical French
and German may best be acquired by using foreign text-books, etc., in the
above medical sciences as parallel reading, or as summer reading after the
completion of the above subjects in the regular medical course.
The William A. Herndon Scholarships are founded upon the bequest of
Dr. Cumberland George Herndon, a graduate in medicine of this university.
They are awarded by the Medical Faculty after a competitive examination
held during the summer vacation preceding enrollment as a student in the
Medical Department. Candidates must be unable to defray the expenses of
their medical education and must signify their intention of entering the
medical service of the army or navy of the United States. These scholarships
provide for the necessary expenses of the student during the entire
four years of his medical course and are awarded whenever there is a vacancy.
Both Herndon scholarships were awarded in September, 1923, one to
a student in the present first year class and one to a student in the second
year class. New appointments to these scholarships are therefore unlikely
to be made until the session 1926-27. Applications must be made not later
than July 1 of the year of appointment. For information as to the examinations
and other requirements, address the Dean of the Department of Medicine.
The Richard Whitehead Scholarships, founded by an anonymous
donor in memory of Dr. Richard Henry Whitehead, Professor of Anatomy
and Dean of the Department of Medicine, 1905-1916, are awarded to young
men of promise who contemplate entering upon lines of medical work which
will advance medical knowledge either pure or applied. They are usually
medical curriculum. It is not probable that new appointments will be made
until the session 1925-26. For further information address the Dean of the
Department of Medicine.
Other Scholarships and Fellowships open to medical students in
common with students in other departments of the University are:
The Valentine Birely Scholarship; the Thompson Brown Scholarship; the
Isaac Cary Scholarship; the William C. Folkes Scholarships; the Bennett
Wood Green Scholarships; the McCormick Scholarship; the Pi Kappa Alpha
Scholarship; the Thomas Fortune Ryan Scholarships; the Virginia Division
of the United Daughters of the Confederacy Scholarship; and the John Y.
Mason Fellowship.
Loan funds also are available. For full information regarding scholarships,
fellowships, and loan funds, see the General Catalogue of the University.
The Alpha Omega Alpha Society.—On November 15, 1919 a charter
was issued for the establishment in this University of a chapter of the honor
medical society, Alpha Omega Alpha, to which there are chosen annually
one-fifth of each graduating class, on the basis of scholarship, character, and
professional promise. Since publication of the catalogue of 1924-25 the following
have been elected to membership: from the class of 1924, Eugene
Osmun Barr, Lila Morse Bonner, B.S., Frederic Griffin Dorwart, B.A.,
Edward Halsell Fite, B.S. in Medicine; from the class of 1925, Staige Davis
Blackford, B.S. in Medicine, Julian Harwood Coleman, James Wilkinson
Jervey, Jr., B.S. in Medicine, Henry Wilds Patton, B.A. and Harry Justice
Warthen, Jr.
COURSES OF INSTRUCTION.
In the following description of courses, the number of hours represents
the amount of time each student devotes to the course. In addition to the hours
scheduled in the third and fourth years of the course, each student devotes a
considerable amount of time to practical work which does not appear in the
schedule, but the satisfactory performance of which is essential to graduation.
Thus the taking of histories, the visits to his cases in the hospital, assisting at
operations, attendance upon cases of labor, the employment of microscopical and
chemical methods of diagnosis in the hospital, require much time which it has
not seemed possible to record in a rigid schedule. It should, however, be stated
that each student in the fourth year gives at least six hundred hours to this
required but unscheduled practical work.
The session, exclusive of the time devoted to examination, is divided into
a fall term of twelve weeks, a winter term of ten weeks, and a spring term of
ten weeks.
FIRST YEAR.
Anatomy 1.—Twenty-four hours weekly during the first term and twelve
hours weekly during the second term. This course begins with a systematic study
dissection and study. On the completion of this course each student has dissected
a lateral half of the body. The student obtains his knowledge at first hand and
by his own personal efforts. The work in gross anatomy is completed in Anatomy
3 of the second year. Dr. Bean, Dr. Speidel and Dr. Barr.
Anatomy 2.—Six hours weekly during the third term. This course consists
of a laboratory study of the anatomy of the central nervous system carried
out in considerable detail. The gross anatomy of the spinal cord and brain
is first considered, on the completion of which sections of the more important
regions are studied carefully with the aid of the microscope. Fresh brains and
series of sections of the cord and brain are thoroughly used. A reconstruction
of the central nervous system showing the more important pathways is prepared
by each student. Dr. Bean and Dr. Speidel.
Histology.—Three lectures or recitations and six hours of laboratory work
weekly during the first and second terms. This course aims to acquaint the student
with the microscopic structure of tissues and organs. Cytogenesis and histogenesis
are briefly considered in the case of many tissues studied. The relation
of histology to physiology and pathology is constantly kept in view. The
student is also given opportunity to acquaint himself with the principles and
practice of histological technique.
A record of seventy per cent. in this course is required for admission to
Physiology, and of eighty per cent. for admission to Pathology. Dr. Jordan
and Dr. Kindred.
Embryology.—Nine hours weekly during the third term. The laboratory
work (six hours weekly) with sections and dissections of mammalian embryos,
is supplemented by lectures, recitations, and the study of models. The course
aims to give the student a knowledge of developmental processes, in the light of
which he may the better understand the more abstruse normal conditions of adult
anatomy, as well as many anomalies and variations. Dr. Jordan and Dr.
Kindred.
Biochemistry.—Lectures and recitations, three hours weekly during the
second and third terms; and laboratory work six hours weekly during the second
and third terms. Course comprises the chemistry of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates;
digestion, intestinal putrefaction, feces; blood, milk, and bile; particular
attention is devoted to the chemical physiology of digestion, secretion,
excretion, internal secretion, intermediary metabolism, and nutrition. Laboratory
work includes the study of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, purine compounds,
etc.; gastric contents, blood, milk, and urine; the digestive enzymes and the digestion
of foods; and extensive qualitative and quantitative work on urine. A
grade of seventy per cent. on this course is required for admission to Physiology.
Dr. Chanutin and Dr. Angell.
SECOND YEAR.
Anatomy 3.—Four hours weekly through the first and second terms. This
course is the continuation of Anatomy 1, and consists of the systematic study
of topographic anatomy, with the aid of cross sections of the human body, special
to the needs of the student in general medicine and surgery. At the end of
this course a practical examination is given, covering the work of Anatomy 1,
2 and 3. Dr. Bean and Dr. Speidel.
Physiology.—Lectures, recitations, and demonstrations, six hours weekly
during the first term, five hours during the second term, two hours during the
third term; laboratory work, six hours weekly during the first term, two hours
weekly during the second term. The physiology of muscle and nerve; blood and
lymph; the circulation; respiration, secretion; digestion; and nutrition, and the
central nervous system. The work of the laboratory closely follows the lectures
as an integral part of the study of each subject. Open only to the students
who have obtained grades of seventy per cent. in Histology and Biochemistry.
An average grade of seventy per cent. and the satisfactory completion of the
laboratory work of this course is necessary for admission to Pharmacology.
Dr. Hough and Dr. Angell.
Bacteriology and Pathology.—Twelve hours weekly throughout the session
and four additional hours a week during the second term. The work in pathology
is open only to students who have obtained a record of passed in Histology.
Bacteriology and Pathology are taught in a combined course. Emphasis is laid
upon the medical and public health aspects of bacteriology. Autopsies and the
study of gross and microscopic specimens supply the practical work accompanying
the systematic study of pathology. Opportunity is given selected students for
advanced work. Dr. Marshall, Dr. Szilard and Dr. Rainey.
Pharmacology.—Lectures, recitations and demonstrations six hours weekly
and laboratory work six hours weekly, during the third term. The physical and
chemical characteristics and the mode of action of representative drugs and
other chemic agents are dealt with in both didactic and practical exercises. Special
attention is given to analysing and interpreting the results obtained in the
laboratory. An average grade of seventy per cent. on Physiology together with
the satisfactory completion of the laboratory work of Physiology is required
for admission to the course. Dr. Waddell and laboratory assistants.
Physical Diagnosis.—Four hours weekly during the third term. Instruction
is given in the principles and methods of physical examination. Attention is
given especially to the study of the normal subject. Dr. Flippin, Dr. Mulholland
and Dr. Wood.
THIRD YEAR.
Materia Medica.—Lectures and recitations six hours weekly and laboratory
work four hours weekly, during the first three-fourths of the fall term. A thorough
study is made of the sources, preparation, composition, properties and interactions
of medicinal substances to the end that they may be intelligently prescribed.
Special attention is paid to their standardization for purity and potency.
Prescription writing and incompatibility are dealt with in frequent practical exercises.
While the consideration of the more important preparations of the
Pharmacopeia and the New and Non-Official Remedies consumes the greater
portion of the allotted time, the course is concluded with a critical study of many
McPeak, Mr. Patton, Mr. Rollins and Mr. Warthen.
Toxicology.—Lectures and recitations six hours weekly and laboratory
work four hours weekly, during the last quarter of the fall term. A systematic
review is made of the pharmacological action of such chemic agents as are particularly
liable to cause injury to health or loss of life, special attention being
given to their quantitative effects. Practical instruction is given in the methods
of isolating and identifying. The treatment of poisoning is dealt with in detail.
Dr. Waddell, assisted by Mr. Jervey, Mr. McPeak, Mr. Patton, Mr. Rollins
and Mr. Warthen.
Clinical Diagnosis.—Six hours weekly during the first and second terms.
In this course the student is made familiar with those laboratory methods which
are helpful in the diagnosis of disease. These include, among others, the examination
of blood, urine, sputum, gastric contents, feces, spinal fluid, exudates and
transudates. Instruction is given in the Clinical Laboratory in the north pavilion
of the hospital, which is well equipped with the most modern instruments and apparatus.
Dr. Bray.
Theory and Practice of Medicine.—Three hours weekly of lectures and
recitations throughout the session; six hours weekly in the clinics for one-half
the session. A systematic course of lectures, supplemented by work in the outpatient
department and hospital. The class is divided into two sections, each of
which devotes itself for half the year to the medical service in the out-patient
department, and also twice a week receives instruction on selected cases in the
wards of the hospital. There is a general medical clinic once a week in the hospital
amphitheater. Dr. Davis, Dr. Flippin, Dr. Daniel, Dr. Nelson, Dr.
Smith, Dr. Mulholland and Dr. Wood.
Dermatology and Syphilology.—Two hours weekly of lectures during the
third term; six hours of clinic weekly for medical section. The importance,
etiology, prophylaxis, pathology, clinical history, diagnosis and treatment of
syphilis are discussed. This subject is completed in the fourth year, q. v. Dr.
Smith.
Surgery and Gynecology.—Four hours weekly of lectures and recitations,
and two hours weekly of surgical clinic throughout the session; with six hours
weekly in the out-patient department, two hours weekly in ward rounds in the
hospital. The study of surgery begins in the third year and continues through
the fourth year. In the third year the classroom work consists of lectures and
recitations, as arranged in the schedule, in which the principles and practice of
surgery, surgical diseases, surgical diagnosis, etc., are thoroughly discussed.
The out-patient department course in the third year gives opportunities for diagnosis
and treatment of clinical cases under close personal supervision. Experience
in dressings, bandaging, anesthesia and minor surgery is afforded. Surgical
appliances and technique are demonstrated to the students, divided into small
groups. The work in gynecology follows the outlines already described for
surgery. In addition, the out-patient department affords practice in palpation,
Helvestine and Dr. R. J. Neff.
Urology and Proctology.—Of the total time assigned to surgery, two lecture
hours weekly for the first term, and six hours weekly in the out-patient
department for one-eighth of the session are devoted to urology and proctology.
In the classroom a general survey of the surgery of the genito-urinary tract
and rectum is made by lectures and recitations. Especial emphasis is placed
upon modern methods of diagnosis and treatment. In the out-patient department,
one-eighth of the class at a time obtains supervised experience in handling
clinical cases and performing minor operations. Ample opportunity is afforded
for the observation of cystoscopic and proctoscopic procedures. Dr. Neff and
Dr. Howze.
Orthopedics.—One hour weekly during the first and second terms; and two
hours weekly during the third term, with six hours weekly in the out-patient department.
Dr. Voshell.
Roentgenology.—Lectures, and practical demonstrations to the class in sections
throughout the year. The application of the X-rays to medicine and the
interpretation of plates in diagnosis. Dr. Archer.
Phthisiotherapy.—Six hours weekly for eight weeks, with each of the four
sections of the class. The work is given in three two-hour sessions a week, held
at the Blue Ridge Sanatorium, and consists of demonstrations, ward rounds and
assignment of cases for history taking and physical examination. At the end of
each clinic session the case history, physical signs, X-ray plates and laboratory
findings are compared in conference. The section is also invited to be present
at the fluoroscopic examinations on Friday mornings at the University Hospital.
The procedure followed aims to instruct in the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis
by systematically presenting each step separately at first and later combining
them all in the full consideration of the case, including the management
and treatment of the patient both in institutions and private practise. Dr. Brown.
Obstetrics and Gynecology.—Three hours of lectures weekly throughout
first and second terms, covering physiology and pathology of pregnancy, parturition,
and puerperium. In the third term is begun the practical observation of, and
participation in, the care of the pregnant and parturient woman, both in the outpatient
department and in the Hospital wards. This work is supplemented by
practicing certain of the more common procedure on the mannikin. Dr. Calkins
and Associates.
Pediatrics.—Two lectures weekly during the first term, three lectures weekly
during the second term. Students are instructed in the out-patient department
three times a week for two and one-half hours. Dr. Royster and Dr. Waddell.
Elective Courses.—In the second and third terms each student is required
to take an elective course of approximately five hours weekly. Elective courses
vary from year to year, and include both pre-clinical and clinical subjects.
FOURTH YEAR.
Theory and Practice of Medicine.—The same plan is followed in the clinical
work as that already described for the third year, each of the two sections
of the class devoting itself for half the year to the medical service in the wards
of the hospital. Full histories are taken of every case, thorough examinations
made, and management indicated by the students of each division. These records
are considered in the final grading of the student. The subjects treated with
the approximate division of time among them are as follows:
Nervous Diseases and Insanity.—Three lectures and recitations weekly,
supplemented by clinical work during the first and second terms. In this course
is given also instruction in electrotherapeutics. Dr. Davis.
Case Teaching, Medical Ethics and Economics, and Insurance Exam-
inations.—Two hours weekly during the third term. Dr. Davis.
Internal Medicine.—Two lectures weekly throughout the session. In this
course the endeavor is made to bring to the attention of the senior student the
more important problems of Internal Medicine. The relationship of recent investigations
in the fields of normal and pathological physiology, biochemistry,
immunology, etc., to internal diseases is especially emphasized. No text-book is
used; students are referred to the files and current issues of journals and to reference
works in the Medical Library as sources of information. Dr. Flippin.
Dermatology and Syphilology.—Two lectures weekly during the first term.
After review of the anatomic and histologic structure and physiology of the skin
the diseases commonly met with are discussed. Ward rounds once weekly for
one-half the year. The interesting cases seen in the out-patient department are
admitted to the hospital for detailed study. Dr. Smith.
Surgery and Gynecology.—Two hours weekly of surgical clinic throughout
the session; five hours weekly of ward classes, supplemented by clinical work
in the wards and operating room for one-half the session with each of the two
sections of the class.
Instruction in surgery is carried on by clinics and bedside demonstrations in
the hospital. In the wards the students are assigned cases, whose histories they
must take. They must also make complete physical and clinical examinations,
urine analyses, blood examinations, etc. In the ward rounds the diagnosis, operative
and other treatment, post-operative care of the cases, complications, prognosis,
etc., are discussed in detail. A large variety of cases is available and the
close contact of the students with their cases and with the routine of hospital
management offers many of the opportunities that an interneship affords. In the
operating rooms the students, in small groups, take part in the operations, thus acquiring
familiarity with technique, anesthetization, etc. Those of the class who
are not assisting witness the operations, whose important features are demonstrated
to them.
In gynecology, urology and orthopedics the students have the same general
work as in surgery, consisting of the examination and the recording of the cases
in the public wards, attendance on ward rounds, at which the cases are discussed,
and observation and assistance in the operating rooms. Dr. Watts, Dr. Goodwin,
Dr. J. H. Neff, Dr. Voshell, Dr. Bigger, Dr. Helvestine and Dr. R. J.
Neff.
Orthopedics.—One hour weekly throughout the year for ward rounds. Dr.
Voshell.
Surgical Pathology.—Two hours weekly during one-fourth the session.
This course is intended to supplement the general courses in pathology and surgery
and consists of lectures upon the pathology of surgical lesions, demonstrations
of fresh tissues obtained from the operating rooms, and examination of microscopic
sections. The student reviews pathological technique, and frozen
section work is emphasized. Dr. Bigger.
Obstetrics and Gynecology.—Continuation of practical work begun in third
year, throughout the first two terms. In the third term a course of three hours per
week in case analysis completes and rounds out the training in this branch.
Small groups of the class are also taught practical treatment by the ward round
method. Dr. Calkins and Associates.
Pediatrics.—Students are instructed in the wards of the hospital twice a
week in ward rounds. In addition all students serve as clinical clerks and have
cases assigned to them for their personal care under the direction of the professor
of this department. This includes the practical feeding of infants and the
preparation of the food. Dr. Royster and Dr. Waddell.
Medical Jurisprudence.—One lecture weekly during one term of the fourth
year. The application of medical knowledge and skill to the needs of the law is
presented. References to literature are assigned for the fuller development of
special topics. Dr. Waddell.
Phthisiotherapy.—Two lectures weekly for four weeks supplemented by
demonstration clinics at the Blue Ridge Sanatorium. Dr. Brown.
Diseases of the Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat.—Two lectures weekly during
the first two terms, supplemented by regular two- to three-hour clinics three
times a week throughout the session and clinical lectures to sections of the class
as suitable cases occur. The class is divided into small sections and each student
is taught the methods of examination and the use of the ophthalmoscope,
head mirror, and of the laryngeal and post-nasal mirrors. In the clinics each
patient is assigned to a student, who must take the history and keep the record
of that patient; the case is then demonstrated by the professor in charge, and, if
possible, each student makes his own examination under the personal supervision
of the attending physician. Clinical cases are abundant, and during the year the
student sees and handles practically all the common diseases of the eye, ear and
upper respiratory tract. Dr. Hedges and Dr. McCutchan.
Hygiene.—One hour weekly throughout the session, and thirteen additional
hours in the second term. The course begins with a historical sketch of the developments
of preventive medicine, including short biographical sketches of the
pioneers of hygiene. With this introduction the story of the natural history of
contagious and infectious diseases, modes of propagation and methods of prevention
engage the attention of the student. With this preparation, the chemical
and bacteriological contamination of food, water, air and soil is made an important
study. Instruction is also begun in the proper location and construction of
habitations, hospitals, schoolhouses, etc., with special reference to the modern
methods of heating, ventilating and draining. Notice is taken of the special relations
involved in military and naval hygiene. Dr. Lambeth.

FACILITIES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR RESEARCH.
The Department of Medicine not only fosters in its methods of instruction
the inductive study by the student himself of the phenomena presented by
the human body in health and disease, but also encourages the spirit of investigation
of unsolved problems of medical science and practice on the
part of the instructors and students. During the past few years there have
appeared annually a number of papers from its laboratories embodying the
results of such investigations, and it is the policy of the department to enlarge
this feature of its work in the future. Students are encouraged to engage
in research as they are prepared for it, usually assisting an instructor
in some special study or else conducting the research under his guidance and
advice. For this purpose the scientific and clinical laboratories offer the
necessary facilities, and heads of departments will always be glad to suggest
and outline problems for investigation by any medical student or by others
possessing the necessary training therefor.
Library.—The medical Library contains upwards of 7,000 volumes. It is

COURSES OF INSTRUCTION IN PUBLIC HEALTH.
A public health officer directs the public health activities over the region
which includes Charlottesville, Albemarle County and the University of
Virginia. The Director of the health unit is a member of the teaching staff
of the Medical School.
After conference with the directing officials of the State Board of Health
two special courses have been designed to meet the existing needs in the
counties and smaller towns of Virginia.
Course No. 1. Training for Rural Health Officers. Medical graduates
will be received for twelve weeks of intensive training in the practical public
health work of county and town. The students will be under the supervision
of the Director of the Public Health Unit and will receive training in
the field and office; in addition they may be assigned for special training in
one of the laboratories or hospital departments of the University. Lectures
will be given upon the public health aspects of selected medical subjects.
Such office and field work as the facilities of the Joint Health Department
afford will be used in training students in this course.
Upon successfully completing twelve weeks of training the applicant
will be recommended by the authorities of the University to the State
Board of Health for position as director of a rural health unit.
Classes limited to five. Students may begin work at any time arranged
with the authorities by correspondence. Correspondence and inquiries
relative to this course should be addressed to the Department of Medicine.
Course No. 2. Training for Sanitary Inspectors. Qualified applicants
twenty-one years of age or over will be received for practical instruction
with the Health Department. The applicants will be taught the fundamental
duties of a Sanitary Inspector through practical training in Albemarle
County and Charlottesville. They will be under the supervision of
the Director of the Health Department. After satisfactorily completing ten
weeks of such training the student will receive from the University a card
certifying to the State Board of Health that he has the training necessary
for a rural sanitary inspector.
Classes limited to five. Students may arrange by correspondence for
admission at any season convenient to the Health officer. Correspondence
and inquiries should be addressed to the Department of Medicine.
For information regarding the course leading to the degree of Bachelor
of Science in Health Education see this catalogue "Department of Education."

The hospital is the property of the University and is under the exclusive
control of its Medical Faculty. It was designed and is administered as a
teaching hospital, being so arranged that free use can be made of its clinical
material without in any way disturbing or violating the privacy of other
patients.
The buildings are arranged upon the pavilion system, consisting of a central
structure, four stories in height, to which have been added up to the
present time five additional units including a service building. The central
building is largely devoted to administrative purposes and general service
departments, but also contains an amphitheater and suite of private operating
rooms, sterilizing and anesthetizing rooms. The four pavilions are connected
with the main building by corridors on each floor. In these are located
the wards and suites of rooms for private patients. As at present constituted,
the hospital has a capacity of about 250 beds; of these, approximately
200 are available and used for clinical teaching.
The north pavilion contains, in addition to quarters for ward and private
patients, on the first floor, a specially designated series of laboratory rooms,
which have been equipped with new and modern furnishings and apparatus
throughout. The basement floor is devoted in large part to the Out-Patient
Department of the Hospital. Here separate waiting rooms for white and
colored patients are provided, examining rooms for medical cases, operating
rooms for minor surgery, specially equipped rooms for genito-urinary and
orthopedic surgery and for the treatment of diseases of the eye, ear, nose
and throat. On the same floor is the Roentgen Ray Department of the hospital.
The recently opened south pavilion, made possible through the
generosity of Paul Goodloe McIntire, houses the departments of obstetrics,
pediatrics and orthopedics.
Attention is particularly called to the fact that the hospital, with its associated
Out-Patient Department, constitutes a most valuable adjunct to the
teaching facilities of the Department of Medicine. The size of the clinic permits
the presentation of a wide variety of cases, and the organization of the
hospital as an integral part of the Medical Department affords exceptional
facilities for thorough study of the individual case.
The location of the University Hospital is a most favorable one, being
situated at the intersection of two great railway trunk lines near the geographical
center of the State. A large population outside of the city of
Charlottesville is available as a source of clinical material, both in the wards
and the Out-Patient Department. The hospital is thus enabled to serve
a large area of the State, and the transportation facilities are such that this
service includes a progressively increasing number of emergency cases and
cases of acute illness.
THE OUT-PATIENT DEPARTMENT.

Commodious and well-equipped quarters for the treatment of ambulant
cases are provided in the north pavilion of the hospital, and the service is
conducted under the direct personal supervision of members of the teaching
staff of the Medical Department. Clinics are held three times a week for
general medical, pediatric, surgical and genito-urinary diseases, which are
attended by students of the third year; and three times weekly for the diseases
of the eye, ear, nose and throat, attended by students of the fourth
year.
The character of the equipment of this department and its location in
the hospital make possible the use of most advanced methods in the diagnosis
and treatment of cases, and the systematic and thorough examination
of each case is thus emphasized at the very outset of the student's clinical
experience.
An out-patient obstetrical service, and provision for attendance in the
home of certain cases of illness by the student, under the supervision of an
instructor, are a part of the organization of this department.
THE BLUE RIDGE SANATORIUM.
The Blue Ridge Sanatorium for the treatment of tuberculosis, which is
owned and controlled by the Virginia State Board of Health, lies within easy
reach of the Medical School. Under a plan of coöperation agreed upon by
the State Board of Health and the University, the Medical Director of the
Sanatorium teaches phthisiotherapy in the Medical School, and the 120 beds
of the Sanatorium afford excellent clinical material for first hand, practical
experience for internes, medical students and nurses of the University Medical
School. Work at the Sanatorium is part of the required course of the
Medical School. This affiliation of the Sanatorium and the Medical School
offers an opportunity almost ideal for the medical student to become
thoroughly familiar with the diagnosis and treatment of this most important
disease.
UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA HOSPITAL TRAINING SCHOOL
FOR NURSES.
A training school for nurses is conducted in connection with the hospital.
Full information regarding requirements for admission, and the
course of instruction may be obtained by addressing the Superintendent of
Nurses.
