Question ID: 382544
I would like to assemble a list of 10 or more former or retired
medical school personnel who have served as  Dean of Admissions".  I
am working on project related to medical education and need the input
of individuals who have been at the center of the Medical School
admissions process.   Dean, Assistant Dean, Associate Dean and similar
titles are all indicative of the level of people I am trying to
identify. I need their names, the institutions they worked for, and
some form of current contact information.

I tip very well for great results.  There is a special bonus if for
identifying recent (but past) Harvard med school admissions staff.

Hi jmhines,

I want to let you know I've been working on your question for the past two days. 

It's taking so long (I have so far located four deans) because I am
being careful not to repeat the deans who are mentioned in the
question below, that I had previously researched for you.

Cecil O. Samuelson - University of Utah

"Duke offered him a position to continue his research and teach, but
the University of Utah also came up with an offer. While he and his
wife, Sharon, thought they would eventually return to their roots in
the West, they didn't anticipate going back so soon. But the
University of Utah job, assistant dean of admissions and faculty
member at the medical school, appealed to Samuelson's generalist and
people sensibilities."
