‘The Architect of the Whole Plan’: Harvard Law Graduate Ken Chesebro’s Path to Jan. 6
It has taken a long time, it seems, for the Harvard Medical School to welcome its first woman member of the Faculty, and it is hard to explain exactly why. But she has now appeared. In the person of Dr. Alice Hamilton of Chicago, who has been installed assistant professor of industrial medicine in the famous institution.
Dr. Hamilton has a distinguished record. She has "M. D." from the University of Michigan; the universities of Leipsic and Munich; Johns Hopkins; the University of Chicago and the Institute Pasteur, of Paris. She has been a professor of pathology, a bacteriologist, an investigator on occupational diseases and a contributor of articles to scientific journals. Few "mere men" have any better equipment for such a post as hers.
In thus calling a woman to its faculty Harvard is now in line with most of the great medical schools of the world. BOSTON POST.
