From the Richmond Enquirer, 3/23/1861, p. 4, c. 6
THE SUMMER COURSE OF LECTURES
OF THE
MEDICAL COLLEGE OF VA
DELIVERED BY
THE RICHMOND ASSOCIATION FOR MEDICAL INSTRUCTION will
commence on the __ of April, 1861, and continue until the 1st of
August ensuing, under the following organization:
Prof. C. BELL GIBSON, M.D.,
Lecturer on Principles and Practice of Surgery.
Prof. A. E. PETICOLAS, M.D.,
Lecturer on Anatomy and Clinical Surgery.
Prof. JAS. B. McCAW, M.D.,
Lecturer on Medical Chemistry and Toxicology.
Prof. J. S. D. CULLEN, M.D.,
Lecturer on Physiology.
Prof. MARION HOWARD, M.D.,
Lecturer on Theory and Practice of Medicine.
Prof. EDWARD C. DREW, M.D.,
Lecturer on Obstetrics.
The plan of instruction will
embrace a combination of Lectures and Examinations – the design being to deliver
but two Lectures daily, each ____ by a thorough examination upon the subject
matter of the previous one, thus affording the conjoined advantage of
instruction by means of lectures and daily recitations, thereby giving the
Student ample time for private study, and for attention to clinical observation.
Students of this Course will be
permitted to see the cases at the Medical College Hospital, Bellevue Hospital,
and City Alms House, FREE OF CHARGE.
In the Surgical Wards of these
Institutions important operations are constantly performed, and the Medical
Department affords daily opportunities for observing Diseases peculiar and
incident to the South.
Every facility will be given for
the study of Practical Anatomy. The Dissecting rooms, under the charge of the
Demonstrator, (Dr. Howard,) are commodious, well ventilated, and are furnished
with abundant material, at, probably, a lower rate than can elsewhere be
procured.
Attendance on this Course will be
regarded by the Faculty of the Medical College of Virginia, as equivalent to
twelve months’ study in a Physician’s Office.
Fee for this Course: $70
