Item is a videocassette of an interview with Dr. Beecher Wild, who was appointed to the Dalhousie Medical School in the Spring of 1936 and was the only faculty person in the Department of Physiology for several years. The interview was conducted by June Penny and was part of a series of interviews with alumni, "Dalhousie Medical School Remembered." The interviews were conducted in the interviewees' homes, with a few exceptions; Dr. Wild's interview took place at his home on Waegwoltic Avenue in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The interviews discuss each doctor's memories of attending or teaching at the School, how the School has changed, and impressions of how the medical field has changed over the years. The video was requested by Dean Hatcher from the Dean's Office.
