One of the physicians that may be discussed as part of the event is Dr. Lucy Oxley, the first African American recipient of a degree from the University of Cincinnati\u2019s College of Medicine in 1935. Dr. Oxley was interviewed by Dr. Benjamin Felson and Dr. Sander Goodman, both classmates of hers, on August 17, 1984, as part of the Oral History of Medicine in Cincinnati series. In the interview, Dr. Oxley spoke about her experiences while at the university and ruminated on both the prejudice and support she received as the first African American female medical student. As an example, despite graduating within the top 15 of the class, Oxley was not offered an internship at UC\u2019s General Hospital as was the practice; instead, she went on to intern at Howard University. In speaking about how some faculty treated her, \u201cthey didn\u2019t consider who I was or what I was most of the time. They ignored me.\u201d<\/p>\n

In spite of these negative experiences, Dr. Oxley had supporters among the faculty and fellow students who stood by her, remarking in the interview, \u201cI had a deep sense of loyalty to UC\u2026because they let me in. I was always very grateful for that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Winkler Center Oral History Collection<\/a> includes over 70 video-recorded interviews with prominent health professionals documenting the history of medicine not only at the University of Cincinnati, but also in the city of Cincinnati and surrounding area. Interviewees include notable physicians, scientists, university deans, department chairmen, faculty, etc. Listen to the full interview of Dr. Oxley online at\u00a0\u00a0 https:\/\/drc.libraries.uc.edu\/handle\/2374.UC\/733243<\/a>.<\/p>\n
