The several institutions are elements in an articulated system, parts of an integrated whole. The educational program is organized to distribute as widely as possible throughout the state the opportunities for general education and to center on a particular campus specialized, technical, and professional curricula closely related to one another. The institutions of the Oregon State System of Higher Education are: the University of Oregon at Eugene, Oregon State College at Cor- vallis, Portland State College at Portland, Oregon College of Education at Monmouth, Southern Oregon College at Ashland, Eastern Oregon College at La Grande, and Oregon Technical Institute at Klamath Falls. The University of Oregon Medical School and the University of Oregon Dental School are located in Portland. The General Extension Division, representing all the institutions, has headquarters in Portland and offices in Eugene, Corvallis, Ashland, Monmouth, La Grande, and Salem. Each of the institutions provides the general studies fundamental to a well-rounded education. At Oregon College of Education, Southern Oregon College, and Eastern Oregon College students may complete major work in teacher education or in general studies or may enroll in preprofessional programs. Portland State College offers major work in general studies and selected liberal arts and professional fields. At the University of Oregon and Oregon State College two years of unspecialized work in liberal arts and sciences are provided on a parallel basis in the lower division. Major curricula, both liberal and professional, are grouped on either campus in accordance with the dis- tinctive functions of the respective institution in the unified Oregon State System of Higher Education. An interinstitutional booklet, Your Education, which outlines the curricula of the several institutions and contains other information con- cerning the State System, is available.

Ciz- cedures of clinical practice, and by the end of the first year, constructs a full denture for a clinic patient under close faculty supervision. The second-year pro- gram includes an increasing amount of clinical work. On the other hand, the basic [ 18 ] scientific and technical studies, which have been traditionally concentrated in the so-called "preclinical" years, are placed strategically through the four years of t~e curriculum in close relation to the diagnostic and clinical application of the basIC principles learned. .... . . In the third and fourth years, mtensive practice of specialized therapeutic t~C?­ nics in the departmental clinics is supplemented by work in the general clImc, where each student is responsible, under supervision, for the diagnosis and treat- ment of the entire oral health problem of a patient. The program of the Dental School includes at present: (l) the four~year undergraduate curriculum to prepare capable practitioners in general dentistry, leading to the degree of Doctor of Dental Medicine; (2) re~resher courses to h~lp graduate dentists keep abreast of the new concepts and. skII.1s. of the progres~mg science of dentistry, and one-year postgraduate courses m chmcal areas, prOVIded by special arrangement, for which certificates are awarded upon successful com- pletion; (3) graduate programs in bacteriolo~y, biochem.istry, anatomy, oral pathology, pedodontics, pharmacology, and pllySIO!Ogy, leadmg to the Master. of Science degree; graduate courses are also offered m the. fi.elds of dental ma!er~als and public health; (4) a two-year program for the trammg of dental hYgIemsts (see pages 63-71) ; (5) a continuing program of dental research. History of the Dental School THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON DENTAL SCHOOL was established through an act of the 1945 Oregon Legislature, which accepted the gift. of the prop- erty of the North Pacific College of Oregon, located in Portland, and mcorporated the college into the Oregon State System of Higher Education. . The North Pacific College of Oregon was the outgrowth of a merger In 1900 of the North Pacific Dental College (founded in 1893 as the Tacoma College of Dental Surgery) and the Oregon College of Dentistry (founded in 1898). The Tacoma School had moved to Portland from Tacoma, vVashington in 1899. In 1908 the scope of tlie college was expanded to include a curriculum in pharmacy; this was discontinued in 1941. In 1924 a new c~arter. granted by the state of Oregon, made the institution a public trust, admimstered by a board of tru~~. . For many years, the late Dr. Herbert C. Miller, serving as president of the board of trustees and dean, played a leading role in the growth and development of the college. A two-year curriculum in dental hygiene was established in 1949. A graduate program leading to the M.S. degree was initiated in 1954. Until 1956 the Dental School was housed in a building at Northeast Sixth Avenue and Oregon Street, erected for the North Pacific College in 1910. In the summer of 1956 the school moved into a new $2,225,000 building adjacent to the University of Oregon Medical School. Facilities THE DENTAL SCHOOL BUILDING is a reinforced concrete and steel struc- ture of modern design, with approximately 130,000 square feet of floor space. It will accommodate 80 undergraduate dental students and 25 dental hygiene stu- dents for each class, in addition to graduate and postgraduate students. The floor levels are as follows: Basement---eafeteria. Ground floor-dental hygiene, postgraduate division, orthodontic and pedodontic ~r~duate departm~nts, child study clinic, department of illustration, cleft palate clImc, dental matenals, 20 GENERAL INFORMATION FACILITIES 21 and lecture and demonstration rooms for clinical sections.

Library The Dental School Library contains 6,800 bound volumes, and currently re- ceives 245 periodicals. The books and periodicals are arranged on freely accessible open shelves. Dental School students also have the privilege of borrowiug books and period- icals from the University of Oregon Medical School Library. All of the books in the several libraries of the Oregon State System of Higher Education are avail- able through interlibrary loan. The Dental School Library provides a reference and lending service for den- tists in the Pacific Northwest area. The Library receives many valuable gifts of books and periodicals from alumni and friends of the school. These include useful current materials as well as valuable older publications. An historical collection includes the library of Dr. J. R. Cardwell, a pioneer dentist who settled in Oregon in 1852. Dental Student Store The Dental School operates a book and supplies store, on a nonprofit basis, for the convenience of students. The selling price of all items is cost plus a small markup to pay for current operating costs. . (1) All items are sold for cash. Students s~ould foresee theIr needs and ma~e financial arrangements as needed, through earmngs, school loans, or through pn- vate financing. (2) The student "instrument and supply issue" consisting of instruments and supplies designated by the department in charge of teaching each course, must be purchased from the student store, and paid for at the time of payment of fees. The "instrument and supply issue" list includes the minimum materials needed by the student to accomplish the laboratory exercises required in each of his courses. Additional instruments and supplies, if desired by the studpnt, may be purchased from the student store or from any dental supply dealer. (3) The store is open for the purchase of supplies on an announced schedule, planned to meet student convenience. . (4) The store stocks only those items approved by the proper commIttees of the Dental School, but will handle special orders on request. Student Health Service A Student Health Service is maintained in cooperation with the University of Oregon Medical School to provide both prevent!ve medical p.roc~ures .and therapeutic care. Hospitalization in medical and surgIcal emergenc1es 1S prOVIded for a maximum of fifteen days. Medical care is not provided for students' de- pendents. The Health Service, located in Room 202, is open Monday through Friday, 9 :00 a.m. to 12 :00 noon and I :00 to 3 :00 p.m. The Health Service physician has clinic hours on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. On Saturday mornings care is available either in the Dental School office or in Room 34 Administration Building, Medical School. A charge for Health Service care is included in the incidental fee, paid at the time of registration (see page 33). Detailed information is published in a booklet, The Student Health Service. Copies are available at the Registrar's Office and the Health Service. Department of Illustration The Department of Illustration prnvides the Dental School with audio-visual aids needed for the interpretation of the dental sciences in the school's instructional and research programs-including photographs, illustrations, motion pictures, transparencies, and sound recordings. The dt:jlarttJ.tent also provides instruction in dental photography and illustration for undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate students. Oral Tumor Registry The Oral Tumor Registry compiles data on tumors and related lesions of the oral cavity. Financial support of the registry is provided by the American Cancer Society and the National Cancer Institute of the United States Public Health Service. The registry is administered by the Department of Oral Pathology and is closely coordinated with the teaching and research activities of that department. The registry material includes complete histories, surgical procedures, and follow-up reports, together with tissue. microscopic sections, X-rays, and gross and microscopic photographs. This information is available to the health pro- fessions for study and research. Cleft Palate Clinic The Cleft Palate Clinic of the Dental School has been established in coopera- tion with the Crippled Children's Division of the University of Oregon Medical School, to provide more complete treatment for cleft palate patients. Children seen in the clinic receive a complete dento-facial appraisal, consisting of an oral examination of the hard and soft tissues in the mouth, cephalometric headplates, impressions for study casts, and facial and intra-oral photographs. Physical meas- urements are made to assess the physical growth and maturation of the patient, and these records are evaluated to determine treatment required. The patient's dentist, the physician staff of the Crippled Children's Division of the Medical School, and the staff of the Cleft Palate Clinic, provide coordinated treatment through a Dento-Plastic Speech Clinic. Specialists participating in the work of the clinic include plastic surgeons, otolaryngologists, orthodontists, pedia- tricians, pedodontists, speech pathologists and clinicians, and medical social con- sultants. Research A number of research projects are currently in progress under the direction of members of the Dental School faculty, with support from private donors, in- dustry, foundations, and the state and Federal governments. Research is also an integral part of the educational program of the Dental School. Undergraduate students may elect a limited number of hours of special study, in which they participate, with members of the faculty, in the extension of knowledge in the dental sciences. With rare exceptions, research is a requirement in graduate programs leading to the M.S. degree. 22 GENERAL INFORMATION LOAN FUNDS 23 Child Study Clinic Research through the study of tooth and facial growth, oral health, and physical growth of the individual child is carried 0n by the Child Study Clinic to provide better understanding of the dento-facial problems of children. Approximately 300 children from the Portland-Vancouver area are registered in the long-term program of the clinic and receive periodic examinations. Each child's record is documented by physical measurements, cephalometric, intra-oral, and hand-and-wrist roentgenograms, photographs, dental study casts, and detailed information on general and oral health. Collected data is used for teaching purposes in the Departments of Physiology, Pedodontics, and Orthodontics, Through work in the Child Study Clinic, graduate and postgraduate students acquire an understanding of the changes taking place in the dentition and face of the growing child, and of the reciprocal relationship between systemic disturbances and oral disease. Facilities of the clinic are available for consultation to the general public and to members of the dental and medical professions. The Child Study Clinic is directed by an Advisory Council, listed on page 10. Scholarships and Awards State Scholarships. Under authorization from the Oregon Legislature, the State Board of Higher Education awards annually a limited number of scholar- ships to superior students who are residents of the state of Oregon.

The members of the committee are: G"orge B. Hull, D.M.D., Eugene; J. Warner Henderson, D.M.D., Hood River; Louis J. Campbell, Jr., D.M.D., Salem; Saul C. Robinson, D.M.D., Portland; John Kuratli, D.M.D., Portland. Special Services Orientation Program for High-School Students. A testing and orienta- tion program similar to the program for applicants for admission is available for high-school students who wish to learn more about the dental profession and about the abilities and skills required in the profession. The program is offered once each year, about the middle of June, at the Dental School in Portland. Exact testing dates and further information may be obtained by writing to the secretary of the Admissions Committee. The program places special emphasis on vocational guidance. Included are discussions of academic preparation, types of professional service, and opportuni- ties in the various branches of dental service. Technic projects are performed to test technic and artistic abilities required in dentistry. To qualify for participation, the student should as a general rule rank in schol- arship within the upper 50 per cent of his class. Application cards may be obtained from high-school principals or vocational counselors. Speakers on Careers in Dentistry. At the request of college, university, and high-school vocational counselors, arrangements may be made for talks by mem- bers of the Dental School Admissions Committee to groups interested in learning about dental education and dentistry as a career. Requests for speaking engage- ments should be addressed to the chairman of the Admissions Committee or to the dean of the Dental School. In cases where members of the faculty are not availahle for speaking engage- ments, the Dental School may be able to arrange for a practicing member of the dental profession to represent the Admissions Committee. Groups or individuals wishing to see the Dental School and its facilities are always welcome. Arrangements for visits may be made through the Dean's Office. Admission and Requirements Admission IN SELECTING dental student candidates, the Admissions Committee takes into account the following factors, in addition to the satisfactory completion of minimum predental course requirements: (1) college grades; (2) amount of college work completed; (3) aptitude-test results from both the American Dental Association test and the Dental School test. Consideration is also given to per- sonality and motivation factors as revealed by interviews. The Dental School recognizes that its,prinlary obligation is to provide an opportunity in dental education for residents of Oregon, and for residents of the western states cooperating in the program of the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education. However, a limited number of nonresident students are accepted each year; a primary consideration in their selection is general scholastic superiority and successful completion of the aptitude testing program. Preparation for Admission. Students planning to apply for admission to the Dental School are strongly advised to obtain as wide an understanding of the services and functions of the dental profession as possible. Some understanding may be obtained by talking with dentists in the local community and by reading il1 the professional journals. The following periodicals are recommended; Journal of the American Dental Association, Journal of Dental Research. and journals of state and district dental societies. Reading in these periodicals will help orient the student in the principles and goals for the promotion of the nation's dental health; the dental health needs of the American public; the problem of dental manpower to meet these dental health needs; types of dental service and special fields of sci- entific, technical, and clinical activity; and the point of view of the dental pro- fession in regard to present-day socio-economic situations, affecting dental health service. Applicants for admission are required: (1) to participate in a two-day orientation and aptitude-testing program administered by the Dental School in Portland*, and (2) to take an aptitude test administered by the Council on Dental Education of the American Dental Associationt. A college-transfer test ad- ministered by the Educational Testing Service may be suhstituted for the A.D.A. test only with the approval of the Admissions Committee. Admission Requirements The University of Oregon Dental School strongly recommends that pre- dental students devot" at least three years to their predent:tl education. The minimum period of predental studies is two y(ars; but only those students who have completed a two-year program with a superior grade-point average will be considered for admission to the Dental School. It is improbable that a student with a grade-point average of less than 2.25 will be accepted for admission. No student with a predental grade-point average of less than 2.00 should apply for admission to the Dental School. The Dental School requires, for admission, the completion of the following courses offered at the University of Oregon (or their equivalents in courses of- • The aptitude test has been suspended for the year 1960. t Information coneerning the A.D.A. testing program is contained in the A.D.A.

The Dental School recommends that the predental student, in addition to completing the basic requirements listed abovec?oos~ el~ctives ~vl~ich will broa~en his cultural background as well as strengthe~ ~IS SCientific trammg. Courses III the following fielcls are suggested: compara- tive anat?my, vertebrate embryology, genetics, mathematics, foreign language (comr.leti?n of a s.econd-year course), philosophy, public speaking, vocabulary for sClent~sts, musIC and art appreciation, history, economics, sociology, psy- chology, literature, anthropology, und personnel management. Students are ad- vised to explore their own interests and consult the catalogs of their institutions for ot~er courses .which will help them obtain the best possible general cultural ed~catlOn. The gUIdance of predental advisers in course planning is indispensible; their counsel should be sought at regular intervals. Students who plan to enter the Dental School before receiving a baccalaureate degree should arrange their predental studies so that they may qualify for the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor I)f Science degree after the completion of two years of work at t?e Dental School. This will .be possible only if they satisfy, in the c?urse of their predental program, all reqUIrements of the degree-granting institu- tIOn for the bachelor's degree, except certain upper-division major requirements for which the institution may accept science courses taken as a part of the Dental School curriculum. Students who intend to utilize Dental School courses in earn- ~ng their baccalaurea~edegrees are urged to consult with their faculty advisers to msure that all reqUIrements for this degree are included in tlieir predental programs. The University of Oregon accepts a maximum of 48 term hours of profes- sional w.ork in de?tist:y as work in residence for a bachelor's degree, and accepts courses 111 the baSIC SCiences, taken at the Dental School, toward the satisfaction of major requirements in biology or general science.

With these tests it is possible to predict with increased accuracy the probable success of students in the dental hygiene curric- ulum and to provide more specific vocational guidance. These tests are a requirement for admission to the delttal hygiene program at the University of Oregon Dental School. However, the aptitude results, in themselves, are not the sol~ basis upon which an applicant will be considered for admission. The tests may be taken at the Dental School in October or February. The exact dates may be obtained by writing to the Department of Dental Hygiene. Applicants are not permitted to take the test more than once a year (for example, an applicant who is tested on October 21, 1960, may not be tested again until October 1961 or later). The February 10, 1961, testing period is intended pri- marily for applicants to the class entering in 1961, but 1962 applicants may register for this testing period. In order to allow sufficient time for processing, all applications for the apti- tude test must be received by the American Dental Hygienists Association, 522 Fifth Ave., New York 36, N.Y., approximately two weeks before the testing period. Applicants are asked to mail the application card, which may be obtained from the Department of Dental Hygiene, and fee for the Aptitude Testing Pro- gram direct to the American Dental Hygienists Association. The testing program requires one-half day's attendance at the school. The fee for the program is $9.00. A brochure describing these tests is sent to all applicants for admission to the dental hygiene curriculum. TWO DAYS PRECEDING THE OPENING of the fall term are devoted to registration. First-year dental hygiene students report at 8:00 a.m. on Thursday, September 22, 1960, second-year students report at I :00 p.m. on Thursday, Sep- tember 22. Information on registration procedures is mailed to each student before the opening of the session. STUDENTS IN THE DENTAL HYGIENE CURRICULUM pay the same regular fees as dental students: a total of $206.00 per term for residents of Ore- gon or a total of $307.00 for nonresidents. For a detailed table of fees, see page 33. The total cost of books, equipment, and supplies required during the two years of the dental hygiene program is estimated at $300.00. The required equip- ment includes: prophylactic instruments, shoes, uniforms, and laboratory coats. All books, supplies, and instruments are purchased from the student store. No substitutions are permitted. It is estimated that the total cost of the two-year program, exclusive of living costs, is about $1,500 for residents of Oregon and about $2,000 for nonresidents. The Dental School has no dormitory or other housing facilities for dental hygiene students. Living costs will vary according to the type of facility. Single rooms may be obtained in Portland for about $40.00 a month; two- and three- room apartments may be rented for about $85.00 a month. Students accepted for admission are advised to arrange for housing before the opening of the school year. The student's registration fees cover the cost of physical examinations, diagnostic service, and emergency care through the Student Health Service. See page 20.
