He begins with his early years and military service. After discharge from the Army he enrolled and graduated from the University of Michigan School of Dentistry and was recruited by the University of Oregon Dental School in 1953, prior to its move to Marquam Hill. He summarizes the early history of the school and the state of dental education in the 1950s. He details the collaborative efforts of the school with the School of Medicine and the Crippled Children's Division in research, establishing clinics, and training residents. He addresses how this affected the consolidation into a University in 1974. He also remarks on the relations of the school with practitioners downtown. In closing he muses on the future of pedodontics [pediatric dentistry]. 000003245 540__ $$fCC BY-NC 000003245 542__ $$fIn Copyright - Educational Use Permitted 000003245 650__ $$aDentistry$$017565 000003245 650__ $$aPediatric Dentistry$$023692 000003245 650__ $$aEducation, Dental$$018219 000003245 650__ $$aSchools, Dental$$025773 000003245 650__ $$aWorld War Ii$$035994 000003245 650__ $$aDentists$$017567 000003245 691__ $$aOregon Health & Science University.
