Artes et Medicim

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  19 February 2018

Extract

The question of a combined arts and medical curriculum has long been a source of dissension among the authorities of our universities, and it is my intention in these pages to lay emphasis on the enormous value of a modified arts course to students of medicine. The average student looks on the enforced study of arts askance, and regards the accompanying lectures and examinations as the deliberate attempt of a malevolent professorial hierarchy to wreck his scientific career; but in later life, when he finds himself thrust upon his own resources with education and common-sense to guide him, he unconsciously begins to reap the benefit of his B.A. degree.
