Post Mortem 1929

About the Project

In 1929, students in the “professional groups” (medical, dental, law, and pharmaceutical) at Howard University decided to publish a separate yearbook “not to disrupt University Spirit, but…to enhance, concentrate, and help propagate University Spirit.” Post Mortem, as the inaugural publication was titled, features a history of the College of Medicine, a listing of professors and students, and a detailed look into the class of 1929.

Since its founding in 1868, the Howard University College of Medicine has served a vital role in training medical professionals – many of whom have gone on to provide much needed healthcare to under-served communities around the United States. Students in the College of Medicine gain experience and training at Howard University Hospital, a mainstay in the community since the founding of the University at the end of the Civil War.
