| The January 1830 college faculty numbers
five, three of whom have trained for the ministry and are practicing clergymen.
Only the two instructors of scientific subjects have trained outside the theological
seminary. It is interesting to note that in 1830 the student-faculty ratio is
18:1. The medical faculty are also active practitioners. The medical
school is organized on a proprietary basis, with the six senior faculty collecting
tuition directly from students and dividing profits among themselves. Even if
one takes into account both standing and adjunct faculty, the 1830 student-faculty
ratio in the medical school is 41:1. [Note: The medical faculty did
not become salaried officers of the University until 1880.] This list is transcribed
directly from the University catalogue of 1830. | Professors
