TV to Link Oread And Med Center
A big advancement for KU will occur next fall when classes here are transmitted by closed circuit television to the KU Medical Center.
we expect to have audio-video transmission simultaneously each way," Dean C, Arden Miller, dean of the medical center, said. "With this two way communication the students will be in personal contact with their instructors. The instructors will be able to ask students questions and the students will be able to answer them."

Classes in statistics, advanced organic chemistry and other subjects will probably be taught over the closed circuit TV.
WITH THIS NEW plan the KU medical center will not have to hire more teachers. This also means that the 150 graduate students there will not have to commute back and forth to KU for classes. Teachers here will not have to make trips to Kansas City.
"One of the difficulties the administration has run into is setting up a relay station between KU and the medical center," Vice Chancellor Raymond Nichols said. A relay tower is needed because the television transmitters at KU have to send messages to the medical center in a straight line. The medical center dies not have a tower tall enough to receive the messages. The relay station will probably be situated at Bonner Springs.
rity day,
The application for a transmitting license and instruction permit was sent to the Federal Communication Commission in Washington, D.C., last October.
CLASSES WILL PROBABLY be televised from Malott Hall, Bailey Hall and Murphy.
Closed circuit television is not new to the medical center. It was the firts medical school in the country to use closed circuit television to instruct students and doctors.
litor)
This development was started by Dr. Paul Shaffer in 1949. The closed circuit TV was black and white then, but in 1951 Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe, then dean of the
medical school, initiated color into the plan.
It is used extensively in psychiatric interviews. This way the students and doctors may learn by observing without disturbing the patient. Of course the patient is fully aware that he is being observed on closed circuit television.
Operations were first televised. The instruction system has advanced so much that it is used today for pathology and demonstrations in the science labs.
ANATOMY CLASSES are also taught by TV. This allows for presentation of difficult dissections.
"Every department in the medical center uses closed circuit television," Miller said. "Over 1,000 instructional hours are done by television every year."
