J., of | Georgetown, who reported on plans of | the university for the development of an enlarged medical center on Reser- voir road, declared that no expense would be spared in making it one of the best equipped in the country, The dental infirmary alone, he said, would be equipped at a cost of $50,000, so as to carry on its public work on a larger scale. In turning over the school to the dental faculty and alumni, he said the university expected their co-opera- tion in conducting it on the highest possible standards. 200 Attend Dinner. Rev. Walter G. Summers, S. J., regent of the dental school, who presided at the dinner attended by approximately 200 professors and alumni, stressed the need of expanding the teaching staff to meet the expected increased number of students next Fall upon the com- pletion of the building. Praising Washington as _an_ educa- tional center, Dr. Taylor, who formerly was dean of the school during his 17 vears on its faculty, deplored the tend- ency to expand the pre-medical and pre-dental courses beyond the period of two years now fixed by the professional associations. hile Georgetown and other non-endowed institutions have been compelled to require two years of college work nécessary for admission to ‘professional d;g:rt.mcnys, .Dr. declared it is being made more and more impossible for a boy of moderate means to obtain a professionél- educa~- Eont “The hdwrsm shiould um be ept open,” he sald, “for boys ese circumstances. \ “There are times when I believe that education is getting to -be one of the biggest monopolies in the country,” he sald. “One of these days there must come about a dnd & reduction in the number of years for préparation before entering a dental or a. medical school. such entrance requirements year by year.” Need of Facilities Stressed. necessity of increasing the facil- f the medical and dental depart- ments_at Georgetown was stressed by both Father Nevils and Father Sum- mers, who referred to the inability to take care of applicants at prerent.
