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
dissections, and wet preparations with a review of the whole body in relation
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, Dr. Speidel, Mr. Cardwell and Mr. Brand.
Physiology.—Lectures, recitations, and demonstrations, six hours weekly
during the first and second terms; laboratory work, ten 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 students who have obtained grades of seventy per cent. in Histology and
Biochemistry. The satisfactory completion of the laboratory work of this course
is necessary for admission to Pharmacology. Dr. Hough and Mr. Strang.
Bacteriology and Pathology.—Twelve hours weekly throughout the session
and four additional hours a week 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 and Dr. Sheppe.
Pharmacology.—Lectures, recitations and demonstrations five 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 the first two terms of
Physiology together with the satisfactory completion of the laboratory work of
Physiology is required for admission to the course.
Dr. Waddell, assisted by
Mr. Hiden and
Mr. Johnson.
Clinical Diagnosis.—Six hours weekly during the second and third 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, assisted by Mr. Norfleet.
Journals.—In connection with the work in Physiology, Bacteriology and
Pathology, the second-year students meet with their instructors for one
hour each week from the first of December to the end of the session for
reports and discussion of the current literature of the above sciences. Three
reports are made at each meeting by the students.
Physical Diagnosis.—Four hours weekly during the third term. Instruction
is given in the principles and methods of physical examination. Attention is
especially given to study of the normal subject. Dr. Flippin.
