Description:
Sparrow recalls being excited and intrigued by the teaching philosophy of the school, working with the MSU Veterinary School to perfect surgical techniques and sharing his diagnostic expertise with them, helping to create an open-heart surgery program for pediatrics, and the tensions between faculty and a "frugal administration". Sparrow also describes the trade-offs between working in private practice and academia, training students and residents, developing specialties and innovative teaching techniques within the school. Sparrow says that it was always difficult to compete for resources, recruit faculty students and residents, and support top programs in a region as small as Lansing. Retired department administrator and faculty member Dr. David J. Kallen, Professor Emeritus of Sociology, conducts the interview. Part of the MSU Department of Pediatrics and Human Development Oral History Project.
