Volunteers Provide
»
Teaching Aids
A recent survey at the Univer
sity of Nebraska college of medi
cine in Omaha reveals that Hn
impressive amount of service is
provided by the volunteer faculty
in the teaching program.
College officials explained that
the use of Volunteer faculty, for
the most part physicians in pri
vate practice, is not unusual in
medical education. On the con
trary, it has been an accepted
procedure for many years.
This is in part due to the many
complex special areas of study in
medicine and to the attempt to
provide as much individual su
pervision as possible during the
student’s clinical trining.
The survey shows that there are
398 persons holding teaching, re
search and administrative posts at
the College of Medicine. Of this
number, , 293 (74%) volunteer
their services at no cost to the
State of Nebraska. These volun
teers spread out among fifteen
different facility ranks from full
professor to demonstrator.
The number of instructional
hours given by each volunteer va
ries with the department to
which he is assigned and the sul>
ject matter with which he deals.
"It is almost impossible to de
termine the savings in dollars
and cents which comes to the Uni
versity through the 74 percent of
our faculty who are volunteers,”
said college Dean J. P. Tollman.
"However," he added, “if we wer
to pay them for their services
it would mean adding many thou
sands of dollars to the University
budget. Our teaching program is
much stronger because of their
help
The majority of volunteers are
physicians who give their time to
the clinical teaching and huper
vision of students at University
Hospital and the eleven afiliated
hospitals and care facilities in Om
aha and Lincoln. An additional
forty-eight are located in small
communities throughout Nebras
ka where they give the medical
student experience in the rural
practice of medicine.
Another group of physicians and
scientists volunteer their services
in basic science teaching and in
research
Further study shows that an
other tax relief is afforded to
Nebraskans through the use of
twenty-seven part-time faculty
who are paid from various grants
and from funds received from the
American Medical Educatior
Foundation. These 27 are a part
of a group of 49 faculty members
who are on a partial-pay basis at
lhe College. These grants tmd con
tributions amounted to $110,335 in
the 1958-59 budget of the Col
lege of Medicine.
The task of the coordination of
'activities and the major teaching
load at the College of Medicine
of Medicine falls on the shoulders
<>f 41 full-time facult> memtiers,
about 10 per-cent of the total
! teaching faculty.
In the area of basic science
i teaching in antomy, physiology.
1 pharmacology, biochemistry and
microbiology the major duties of
| ad I inis (rat ion, teaching, research
I and laboratory supervision are
carried almost entirely by full
time faculty with the greatest dse
:of volunteers taking place in the
'clinical teaching and research un
der (he direction of a small full
time faculty. This 10 per-cent of
the faculty is supported through
I tax funds.
Humor Helped Lincoln
Bear Civil War Woes
A fund of warm humor enabled
Abrahom Lincoln to bear the bur
dens of Civil War presidency.
Many of the stories told by and
alxjut him, have been repeated so
often they are legendary; but
there are others, less well-known,
(which give an accurate portrait of
1 the 16th President an dhis time.
In connection with the 1959 sesqui
j centennial of Lincoln’s birth, the
February Reader’s Digest pmts
a collection, titled “The Lincoln
I Who Lives in Anecdote.” hTese
are a few from that collection.
Young Abe delivered a sack of
grain to a mill owned by the laziest
man in the county. As he waited,
Abe said “I’ll bet I could eat that
grain as fast as you’re grinding
it.”
“And just how long do you think
you could keep it up?” the miller
asked. “Oh,” said Lincoln, “until
I starved to death, I guess.”
Once, as he passed by, a boy
called out, "There goes old Mr.
Lincoln.” Lincoln remarked to a
friend, “They commenced saying
that when I was scarcely 30.”
During the famous Lincoln
Douglas debates, Stephen Douglas
called Lincoln a “two-faced man.”
Lincoln replied: “I leave it to my
audience. If I had another face, do
you think I would wear this one?”

a funeral he was going to have, he
would have died years ago.”
One old chap, disappointed at
not having had a chance to shake
President Lincoln's hand at a re
ception, shouted to him: "Mr.
President, up in York state we be
lieve God and Abraham are going
to save this country.”
Lincoln turned to him with a i
smile “My friend,” he said,
“You're half right.”
At a cabinet meeting hel don the
last doy of his life, Lincoln told
General Grant he had a feeling
he would soon hear some news of
great importnce.
"Why do you think so?” asked
Grant.
“Because I had a dream last
night, and ever since the war be
gan l have invariably had the same
d r e a m tie fore any important
event.” He said that in it he saw
a ship sailing rapidly over the
sea, and that he had seen it before |
the battles of Bull Run, Antietam,
Gettysburg and others.
Later in the day, dismissing all
work, he ordered the carriage for!
a drive with his wife. When she j
asked him if he would like some- j
one to accompany them, he said, I
“No, I prefer to ride by ourselves j
today.” She said later that she had 1
never seen him so happy as on
that occasion.
