Abraham Flexner
Flexner Report, 1908
• Admission to a medical school should require, at minimum, a high school diploma and at least two years of university study, primarily devoted to basic science.
• The length of medical education be four years, 2 years of basic science and 2 years of clinical practice
• Proprietary medical schools should either close or be incorporated into existing universities, because a stand-alone medical school would have to charge too much in order to break even.
• Medical schools should appoint full-time clinical professors--"true university teachers, barred from all but charity practice, in the interest of teaching."
