EXHIBIT "B"

Report of the Military Committee of the Medical
Faculty on the question of Credit for
work in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps.

Whereas there are no elective subjects in the medical
curriculum and all subjects in this curriculum are necessary
to meet the requirements of State Licensing Boards and other
recognized standardizing agencies, it is not possible to
give any credit for the Degree of Doctor of Medicine on
account of work done in the Reserve Officers' Training
Corps.

The Medical Faculty, however, desires to place no
obstacle in the way of medical students taking this work;
and suggests that, if the field work come after 4 P. M.,
medical students will be able to engage in it without conflict
with their medical studies. The Medical Faculty will
also gladly make any possible changes in the schedule to
enable its students to attend the lectures of the course,
but would prefer that these lectures come not earlier than 12 M.

The Medical Faculty also desires to record its conviction
that the work of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps
will be of great value to any medical student in view of the
possibility of his subsequent service in the Medical Corps
of the Army or Navy.

For the Committee,
(signed) Theodore Hough,
Chairman.
