The faculty included Benjamin Silliman as professor of chemistry. The course of study, including dissections, is explained, with fees, degrees awarded, the "organization of the institution," "means of instruction," donors. Among the advantages of New Haven for a medical school is "the general moral character of its population, and the freedom of the city from theaters, circuses, and other public places of amusement," thus avoiding "habits of vice." Graduates of the class of 1838 are listed, along with "Licentiates."
