Should this association ever have a historian there is a possibility that he will bear a grudge against the annalist of current events. Perhaps it is best that our annals should be so simple, but one who has not been a part of the past of this body cannot suppress his wonder that so little of aamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898a narrative form has been produced at its successive meetings.

M. Bodine, Dean of the Medical Department of the University of Louisville, that it was a favorable time for the medical colleges to organize for a common advance in the standard of requirements. After taking counsel with the deans of many colleges he sent out an invitat aamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898ion for a convention, which was held in Philadelphia, June 2nd, 1876, at the Jefferson Medical College. At this first meeting^ although urged by Prof.aamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898

It was declared that “ the objects of this Association shall be the advancement of medical education and the establishment of a common policy among medical colleges in the more important matters of c aamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898ollege management? * The articles of confederation contain provisions as to the medical curriculum which were a distinct step in advance of the practiaamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898

One prominent feature which is conspicuously absent from the constitution of the present body is an article minutely regulating the fees. This article was not framed to preve aamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898nt overcharging or extortion but to give recognition to the custom of5number of beneficiary scholarships, carefully regulating the charity “ lest oneaamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898

Under the cloak of charity was covered a shrewd scheme for enlisting the congressman or representative as an advertising agent for the college glad to get students at any price. If the parties concerned were willing that the loss of dignity should be compensated by an increase of revenue it aamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898was expected that no one else would complain. In the opinion of the colleges the loss of dignity involved all colleges that affiliated with the too liaamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898

These resolutions noted the failure of concerted efforts by previous national organizations to secure a uniform high grade system of instruction in accord with aamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898the requirements of the age and called for definite action by the colleges at the same time urging the dissemination of right views by the medical andaamc_proceedings_of_the_meeting_at_denver_1898
