Campus Conversations: The History of ETSU's Quillen College of Medicine

In this special series of campus conversations, we begin exploring the history of East Tennessee State University. In this conversation, President Noland sits down with Fred Sauceman to discuss the history of ETSU's Quillen College of Medicine, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. Described as a true "David and Goliath story," the fight to create a medical school at ETSU resulted in one of the most significant and contentious political battles in state history. The conversation explores the early efforts in the 1960s to establish Quillen, the steadfast community support of people throughout the region, and key figures like Dr. Charles Allen and Congressman James H. Quillen, who helped make the dream a reality. The discussion also highlights the Quillen College of Medicine's impact on the region by providing improved access to healthcare.

The fact that Johnson City has a VA Hospital was also instrumental in getting the Medical School located here!
