HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE SCHOOL

In 1862 Dr. H. H. Toland erected a building to serve as the nucleus of a medical school. This was subsequently known as Toland Hall, and in 1872 was formally transferred to the Regents of the University of California as a department of the University. For many years the affiliation was merely nominal and the medical faculty was in entire control of the policy of the school, the support of the institution being derived from fees of the students.

In 1895 the course of instruction was extended from three to four years. In 1898 the school was moved to its present location on Parnassus Heights, a tract of land of thirteen and one-half acres donated to the University by the late Adolph Sutro. Funds were provided by the Legislature to erect buildings for law, medicine, dentistry and pharmacy, and at a later date the law building was transferred by the Board of Regents to the Medical School.

In 1902 the Board of Regents adopted a resolution of vital importance to the Medical School. Instead of preserving the former loose affiliation it was determined to regard the medical department as an integral part of the University. The properties of the school were transferred to the University, the students' fees were turned into the general University fund and support of the school was assumed by the Regents. The first two years of medicine were at once put upon an academic basis and suitable laboratories equipped.

With the destruction of the Out-Patient Department by the earthquake and fire of 1906 it became necessary to transfer the work of the first two years to Berkeley and to transform the main building of the school into a hospital and out-patient clinic. In December, 1911, the Regents of the University announced their intention of bringing together the various departments of the school, of providing a proper modern teaching hospital and of placing the clinical years upon an academic basis. Therefore, on April 9, 1912, it was resolved to consolidate all departments of the school in San Francisco as soon as feasible. A recommendation of the President of the University was adopted which provided a plan of reorganization for the clinical years.

Clinical instruction is now divided into four main departmentsMedicine, Surgery, Diseases of Women, and Pediatrics. The departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Pediatrics are in charge of full-time teachers, and as soon as possible the departments of Medicine and Surgery will be placed upon the same basis.

In 1914 a Department of Tuberculosis and a Department of Psychiatry were established and work in these departments included in the curriculum.

In 1915 arrangements were perfected by which an agreement with the Hospital for Children and Training School for Nurses was brought about and in the same year the Regents of the University agreed to take over the Hahnemann Medical College of the Pacific and to include electives in Homeopathy in the curriculum of the Medical School.

In 1916 Biochemistry was separated from Physiology and a department of Biochemistry and Pharmacology established. A department of Preventive Medicine and Hygiene has also been started.

During the same year the Regents adopted a plan for the future development of the school. This plan contemplates the building of a nurses' home in connection with the new University Hospital, new buildings to house the departments of Anatomy and Pathology, the erection of an out-patient building, the adaptation of existing buildings for purposes of administration, students' quarters, laboratories, library space, and to house the departments of Physiology and Biochemistry.

THE GEORGE WILLIAMS HOOPER FOUNDATION FOR MEDICAL RESEARCH

In memory of her husband, George Williams Hooper, a pioneer citizen of San Francisco, Mrs. Hooper, on Commencement Day, May 14, 1913, transferred to the Regents of the University certain valuable property to serve as a foundation for an institute of medical research. The income at present provided is $50,000 a year, but $100,000 per annum will be available in a few years.

The formal opening of the Foundation was celebrated on March 7, 1914. Addresses were delivered by Dr. Henry S. Pritchett, President of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching; Dr. Richard M. Pearce, Professor of Research Medicine, University of Pennsylvania; and Hon. Curtis H. Lindley. The policy and work of the Foundation is determined by an advisory board of seven members conferring with the Regents of the University.

The building formerly occupied by the Veterinary School has been devoted by the Regents of the University to the work of the Foundation. Dr. George H. Whipple, formerly Associate Professor of Pathology in Johns Hopkins University, is Director, and is also Professor of Research Medicine in the Medical School. The work of the Hooper Foundation, therefore, is closely correlated with that of the Medical School. Men at work in the Research Laboratory have free access to the University Hospital wards and positions in the Hooper Foundation will be available for men in the Medical School who desire to enter a career in research medicine. The work of the Hooper Foundation in no way replaces any of the research in the various departments of the Medical School.
