Abstract:
The creation of the University of Puerto Rico School of Medicine required someone who could recruit faculty, plan the curriculum, set up the admissions process, and insure that the school meet accreditation requirements. Despite setbacks, chancellor Jaime Benitez found in Dr. Harold W. Brown a person with the knowledge and abilities to accomplish these tasks. Although Brown would not accept the deanship of the school, he was detailed by Columbia University to serve as Benitez's special advisor. In this role, he intervened at key points in the school's development and was able to accomplish his mission. Benitez gave credit to Brown for the school's development, and Brown's contributions were duly recognized when the School graduated its first class in 1954.
