| A-8.9 Student Health Service, 1923-ongoing | ||
| Administrative History: In
December of 1923, a special committee recommended to the University Council that a
University Health Service for all students begin the following semester. Joining the ranks
of only fifty other educational institutions in the nation, the Health Service intended
"to help students entering the University to possess a sound, vigorous, harmoniously
developed body in order that his general welfare may be enhanced and his efficiency
increased, not only in the University but in later life." In its first semester of
operation, the service implemented periodic sanitary inspections for all student housing,
physical examinations for all freshmen, and an all-freshmen personal and public health
course. Marquette University Hospital housed the student dispensary from 1923 until 1932,
at which time the service moved to the newly completed Harriet L. Cramer School of
Medicine. In 1978, the Cramer School of Medicine was renovated and in 1981, renamed the
Walter Schroeder Health Sciences and Education Complex. The current mission of Student
Health Services, to provide health care and education to the Marquette community, has not
changed since its inception in 1923.
