A new medical college in Chicago, the College of Physicians and Surgeons, has been sued, according to the Inter-Ocean, by a student who allege that he was promised a graduate's diploma at the end of one year's study. The faculty declined to carry out the pledge, and offer in defence the evidence that an individual member of the corps of teachers made the promise, and furthermore that the agreement for this brief term of study was not in accordance with the regulations of the State board of health. The question at once arises how long a doctor who would offer a diploma for twelve months' study of medicine will be permitted to serve as an instructor in a medical college, new or old?
