Strickler discusses his undergraduate years as a member of the Dartmouth College Class of 1950 and medical training at Dartmouth Medical School, his training and career at Cornell Medical College, and his tenure from 1967 to 1981 as associate dean and, later, dean of Dartmouth Medical School. Dr. Strickler also gives a broad overview of the history of Dartmouth Medical School from its refounding through the move to a four-year degree-granting program followed by the creation of the Dartmouth/Hitchcock Medical Center. He offers his analysis of the relationships between the entities that make up the medical center and the governance questions they tackled during the creation of the medical center as well as the roles played by President Kemeny and the overseers and trustees.
