CORNELL UNIVERSITY REGISTER
The Faculty of Medicine at Ithaca occupies Stimson Hall, a
modern and thoroughly equipped laboratory building erected in 1902.
It was made possible by the generosity of Dean Sage of Albany and
at his request was named Stimson Hall in recognition of the services
rendered by Dr. Lewis A. Stimson toward the establishment of the
Medical College.
The library of the Medical College in New York City contains
about fifteen thousand volumes and a large number of reprints and
monographs including the Birch-Hirschfeld bound collection. The
receives about one hundred current scientific periodicals
library
which include nearly all the more important German, French, and
English journals in the field of medical science. In addition to their
use of the college library, students enjoy certain privileges at the li
brary of the New York Academy of Medicine, 17 West Forty-third
Street, and at the New York Public Library.
The Van Cleef Memorial Library, endowed by Mynderse Van
Cleef, Esq., in memory of his brother, Dr. Charles Edward Van Cleef,
and housed in Stimson Hall, supplements the extensive facilities
of the University Library by a steadily growing collection of reference
works and periodicals of importance for the work of instruction and
research conducted by the Medical College at Ithaca.
The Sarah Manning Sage Research Fund of $50,000 was be
queathed to the University in 1 916 by Mrs. Sage, the widow of Dean
Sage, donor of Stimson Hall, for use in promoting the advancement
of medical science by the prosecution of research in the Medical Col
lege at Ithaca.
An important adjunct to the Department of Physiology at Ithaca
is an Experimental Field Station operating nine acres in the open
country about two miles from Stimson Hall. The station provides
ideal conditions for keeping animals under observation in feeding and
nutrition experiments, for example, during long periods of time.
