Dr. Tom Johnson, M.D. recalls his career as physician, professor, and administrator in the College of Human Medicine at Michigan State University
- Description:
- Johnson describes the early years of the college, which featured rugged schedules and low pay for faculty, the freedom to create programs and be innovative, and team building with hospitals around the state of Michigan. Johnson also describes how John Hannah, former president of the university, started the medical school at MSU in the face of pressure to place a school in Grand Rapids, his own fears for the future of the college if it becomes too closely identified with West Michigan and his belief that it would be best for the college to stay based in East Lansing with working partners around the state.
