Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Study of Women Graduates of the University of Oregon Medical School and Willamette University was in the form of a scrapbook. The materials include photographs, biographical information and obituaries for some individuals but not all. There is an alphabetical index. Subsequent pages list the physicians in chronological order by date of graduation. It was added to the Library collection in 1948 and compiled mostly by Lucy I. Davis Phillips. It also contains newspaper articles and other information added to the volume after Phillips' death, some clippings added as late as 1978, biographical information regarding Ms. Phillips and some publication information. Also an addendum to the collection consists of survey forms filled out by women physicians who graduated from the UOMS, rosters of female UOMS and Willamette University graduates in active practice and minutes of the Multnomah County Medical Society. The results of the survey are conveyed in the scrapbook.
