Come check out the new exhibit \u201cThe History of Temple\u2019s Health Sciences Schools,\u201d on display in the Ginsburg Library. The exhibit\u2014immediately to your left when you walk in the library\u2019s doors\u2014contains photographs, yearbooks, and artifacts representing all of Temple\u2019s Health Sciences Schools from the late 19th century until recent years. Some highlights from the collection include an antique compounding scale lent from the School of Pharmacy, photos from the early 1900s of medical students at work, and a page from a mock medical journal titled \u201cThe North Philly Journal of Medicine\u201d found in a 1978 yearbook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All of the photos on display in the exhibit were found in our Special Collections Research Center<\/a>, either through the digital collections<\/a> or in the physical collections during on-site research in the archives. Accompanying the exhibit is a survey where students can vote for their favorite photo in the exhibit, which can be accessed through a QR code posted on the main display case.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is my hope that when students view the exhibit they will feel a sense of camaraderie with Temple\u2019s history and the Health Sciences students of the past, which will in turn ease some of the stress brought on by the intensity of their studies. Special thanks to Dr. Susan Dickey from the school of nursing for lending the exhibit some of her personal artifacts and to Margery Sly from the Special Collections Research Center for her research advice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
