Editors' Note
With the usual clarion call
summoning those interested to
participate in its making:, the
Medical College News launches
into print. Thus introduced, we
confer our plaudits: To the
student body for promoting: a
Council; to the Council for
promoting a newspaper; to the
Daily Nebraskan for its excel
lent co-operation; to Dean
Lueth for his blessings on our
project.
Our newspaper, we hope,
will serve usefully, disseminat
ing news and providing ready
outlet for the unlimited store
of literary talent invariably
associated with medical con
course. If we do that. . .enough.
Anything more is gravy.
Nevertheless, in our embry
onal ambitiousness, we shall
endeavor to promote the gravy
most promiscuously, and en
visage our little paper as an
instrument of greater cohesive
ness within the college, of more
acute awareness and interest
in the many projects engaged
in by our staff and students,
and of greater pride in the
highly complex, highly skilled
endeavor that goes into the
making of a fine medical col
lege. Our caps set then for lofty
heights, we thrust ourselves
upon your consciousness, dear
readers, and beg your indul
gence whilst we attend to our
growing pains.

Treats 2 SO Patients
More than 250 patients have been treated by the Nebraska
Psychiatric Unit since its inception last February under the director
ship of Dr. D. J. Doan. The Unit, which fills the need for a first
class psychiatric teaching organization, and for a closer tie between
the community and the application of modern methods of preventative
psychiatry was established early this year through the cooperation
of the State Board of Control, the University of Nebraska, and
Douglas County.
New Schedule
Will Include
Externships
A new senior schedule, de
signed to give students more
practical training during the aca
demic years, has been instituted
at the University of Nebraska
Medical College.
'Chief innovation of the sched
ule is the addition of an eight
weeks senior externship. Senior
students will be assigned to one
of four local hospitals for this
purpose. University, Immanuel,
Methodist and Clarkson hospitals
are included in the project. Dur
ing the period of externship, the
students will live and work at
their respective hospitals. They
will attend no courses at the
University during this time.
At the end of eight weeks, the
externs will change places with
another division of the class
which had been assigned to dis
pensary. The two" sections to
gether make up half the class.
The other half of the class will
in the meantime be receiving a
full semester of didactic and
clinical lectures and will be as
signed to outcall patients at this
time. At the end of the semester,
they will alternate to dispensary
and externship assignments.
The arrangement is such that
all didactic lectures will have to
be gone overHwice in order that
all the senior students may hear
them. The staff is thus taking
on an added burden in order to
carry thru this more complete
senior schedule.

Psych Unit
" Although the unit is located at
the Douglas county hospital, it
will function as a branch of the
University hospital. Professional
personnel of the unit hold ap
pointment on the faculties of the
University of Nebraska College of
Medicine and School of Nursing.
Patients are selected on a county
quota basis with restriction of
admissions to those patients who
can either benefit from treatment
or be utilized for teaching pur
poses. Effected July L,
Under the teaching program put
into effect July 1, 1948, five resi
dents are now serving with the
unit. Three of these are at tho
second year level in a contem
plated three year residency pro
gram. The training program con
sists of staff conferences, lec
tures on the various phases of
psychiatry, and practical experi
ence. The second year men will
spend most of their time in
psychotherapy, while the first
year men will be given emphasis
on the methods and principles of
physical therapy such as electro
shock and insulin shock therapy.
Planned for the future are
seminars, lectures in basic psy
chiatry and special-topic lecture
seminars, the latter to be con
ducted by prominent men in the
field of psychiatry. Other plans
call for a post-graduate course in
psychiatric nursing and a closer
relation between the unit and the
neurology and psychology depart
ments of Nebraska medical school.
All of the modern methods of
treatment will be used for the
benefit of the mentally ill patients.
Through a follow-up program
administered through out-patient
and psychiatric social service de
partments, determination of the
actual results of therapy are ex
pected xo oe auainea.
The unit took patients for tha
first time on Feb. 16, 1948. Sinca
that time a total of 281 patients
have been seen. Of these 19$
have been out-patients. Forty
eight of 85 admitted patientf
