Although the Charter for the School of Medicine was signed in 1963, and active recruitment of faculty commenced almost immediately, the recruitment of students, in fact, did not begin until several years later, with admission of a first-year and a third-year class in September 1968. From that time to the present, the class size has increased from a small, carefully selected group of 36 first-year students to its current size of 115 students in each of the basic science years and 132 students in each of the clinical years. As one might imagine, over the ensuing two and a half decades, many changes have occurred in every aspect of the educational process. Throughout these years the School of Medicine has evaluated and reassessed its goals and objectives in order to continue to make the study and practice of medicine not only exciting but also meaningful and to advance knowledge of the scientific origins of disease and the quality of health care. This paper reviews the evolution of this process at the School of Medicine as well as outlines our educational agenda for the next decade.
尽管医学院的章程于1963年签署，并且几乎紧接着就开始积极招聘教师，但实际上，学生的招生工作直到几年后才开始，1968年9月录取了一年级和三年级的班级。从那时到现在，班级规模已从最初精心挑选的36名一年级学生的小班，增加到目前基础科学各年级的115名学生以及临床各年级的132名学生。可以想象，在随后的二十五年里，教育过程的各个方面都发生了许多变化。这些年来，医学院一直在评估和重新评估其目标和宗旨，以便继续使医学学习和实践不仅令人兴奋，而且有意义，并推动对疾病科学起源和医疗保健质量的认识。本文回顾了医学院这一过程的演变，并概述了我们未来十年的教育议程。
