Duke Trustees Establish
Dr. Bayard Carter Chair
The founder and first chairman of the
Department of Obstetrics and Gyneco
logy has been honored with the endow
ment of a chair in his honor.
The University's Board of Trustees
recently gave its authorization for the F.
Bayard Carter Chair of Obstetrics and
Gynecology.
Dr. Carter has been engaged in private
practice in Durham since retiring from
Duke on his seventieth birthday last year.
He was chairman of the department here
until 1964.
The Bayard Carter Society of Obste
tricians and Gynecologists, formerly cal
led the Nick Carter Travel Club, made the
first gifts toward the establishment of
such a chair several years ago. The so
ciety is made up of nearly 70 former
house staffers who have worked and
studied under Dr. Carter.
When the idea was first proposed, re
tiring Duke President Douglas M. Knight
said, "I can think of no one who more
clearly deserves to have a professorship
established in his honor."
A native of Wilmington, Del., Dr.
Carter earned his A. B. degree at the Uni
versity of Delaware and was granted two
additional degrees at Oxford University
DR. CARTER
as a Rhodes Scholar. He received his
M. D. degree from Johns Hopkins Univer
sity in 1925.
A member and officer in many state,
national and international professional or
ganizations, Dr. Carter received the Alger
non Sidney Sullivan Award for distin
guished service to the South in 1955. The
Royal College of Obstetricians and Gy
naecologists in England last year elected
him to a life-time membership, an honor
extended to only seven other Americans
in the history of the society.
