The Anatomy of Exclusion: The History of Antisemitism in U.S. and Canadian Medical Education Presentation

From the 1920s to the 1960s, most U.S. and Canadian medical schools imposed an upper-limit restrictive quota on the admission of Jewish students. This lecture will discuss the origins, implementation, and ramifications of this quota and its meaning in light of contemporary events.

Speaker:

Chancellor and Chief Executive Officer, New York Medical College
