Dillehunt, reminisces about his uncle, sharing anecdotes about his life, medical career, and the many physicians he befriended. Willhite begins with some biographical information about himself before moving on to a short history of the Dillehunt family. He gives a brief summary of his uncle's medical education and early years at UOMS before his military service in World War I. He recalls his version of the events leading up to the purchase of 襇ackenzie's Folly�-the parcel of land atop Marquam Hill where the Medical School now stands. Dillehunt was appointed Dean upon the death of Dean Mackenzie in 1920. Willhite talks of his uncle's management style, his colleagues, and his dual role as Dean and a private practitioner. He confirms the impression that the School was dominated by the dynamics of an "old boy's network" among local physicians. 000003257 540__ $$fCC BY-NC 000003257 542__ $$fIn Copyright - Educational Use Permitted 000003257 600__ $$aDillehunt, Richard B.$$010302 000003257 650__ $$aSchool Management and Organization$$041897 000003257 650__ $$aFaculty$$018865 000003257 650__ $$aPhysicians$$024116 000003257 691__ $$aOregon Health & Science University.
