\"pictureIn celebration of the College of Medicine’s 125th anniversary, UNMC Today is publishing a daily historical question and inviting UNMC employees to send their answers to today@unmc.edu<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The first person to respond correctly will win a free, gray T-shirt commemorating the College of Medicine’s 125th anniversary. There will be no repeat winners. Answers will be published the following day, along with the next question. Winners will be contacted by UNMC Public Affairs, as well as announced in UNMC Today.<\/p>\n

The series ends June 14, when the campus community is invited to a free carnival to celebrate the College of Medicine’s anniversary. The carnival — complete with cotton candy, games and prizes — will be from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Swanson Courtyard (west of the Durham Outpatient Center). Carnival goers will be treated to a jazz band, jugglers and clowns. T-shirts also will be available for purchase.<\/p>\n

Congrats to David Conklin, Intellectual Property Office, for correctly answering most of:
Question 6 — Who was Shorty Gray and how was he involved in a scandal at the College of Medicine?<\/b><\/p>\n

Answer <\/b> — Shorty Gray was a desperado who escaped from the State Penitentiary in 1912 and was killed in a wild chase as he fled from the law in a horse drawn wagon. His body ended up in the anatomy dissecting rooms (at that time, the first two years were taught in Lincoln). A medical student was caught trying to sell mementos from Shorty’s remains and was promptly dismissed from the medical school.<\/p>\n

Here is the next question — good luck!<\/p>\n

Question 7 — When did the medical school almost lose its accreditation?<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
