Another title: Public Health and Preventive Medicine, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).
A course designed to acquaint the student with the medical resources of the community and the function of the school medical services. Problems of mental health in school and community, and medical statistics as they relate to the illnesses of different age groups. Certain topics relating specifically to health education, such as alcoholism, the use of tobacco or drugs, are made the subjects of seminars. Nutrition and its relation to health and modern concepts of preventive medicine are reviewed in a general manner. Visits to schools and clinics which are relevant to the course will be arranged.
3 lectures first term.
