Overview
In 1917, Clement B. Newbold founded the Mary Scott Newbold lectureship fund in memory of his wife. Newbold was a member of W. H. Newbold’s Son and Co. banking firm, and had donated to the College in the past. The Mary Scott Newbold lectureship was to “enable [the College] to obtain distinguished lecturers to address the College on subjects related to medicine or the allied sciences.”
As of 2003, the College was still hosting an annual Mary Scott Newbold lecture.
The Records of the Committee on the Mary Scott Newbold lecture contain the Committee’s reports from 1923 to 1930 and 1934 to 1938, as well as a transcript of the Symposium on Legal and Ethical Implications of the Non-Medicinal Use of Drugs, held in 1968.
