Saint Louis University School of Medicine
Description: Saint Louis University School of Medicine is one of the eleven schools which comprise Saint Louis University. It was established in 1836 as the Medical Department of the university and had the distinction, in 1839, of awarding the first M.D. degree granted west of the Mississippi River. Affiliated doctors of national importance were, among others, William Beaumont whose pioneering studies of the human digestive system opened a new world of research, and Daniel Brainerd, who later founded Rush Medical College (then part of the University of Chicago).
The Know-Nothing movement, an anti-immigrant and subsequently anti Catholic movement, that surged through the United States in the 1840's and 1850's led, in 1854, to the separation of the university's Medical Department from the university. The university was without a medical school for 59 years until, during the presidency of Father William Banks Rogers (1900 to 1908), plans were initiated for the integration of a new medical school into the university. In 1903, by approval of the trustees, the Marion Sims-Beaumont College of Medicine was incorporated into the university. Marion Sims-Beaumont College was a medical school owned and operated by a group of St. Louis physicians. The college's decision to merge with the university was reinforced by the recommendations of the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals of the American Medical Association, which insisted on university affiliations for all schools of medicine. Assured of financial support from St. Louis civic leader Festus J. Wade, President Rogers successfully secured the needed funds for the purchase of Marion Sims-Beaumont College.
U.S. News recently ranked Saint Louis University School of Medicine number 54 among the nation's 130 medical schools surveyed. Additionally, the school's geriatrics program was ranked No. 14 in the nation.
