Did you even read the link you posted? Yes in 1969 it was known as that. It's not anymore and I provided the link for the UAB School of Medicine website. Again, mic dropped.

"accredited as the University of Alabama School of Medicine by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education, which approves all programs in medical education in the United States and Canada."

From the UAB website yet again.

Dude, dig that hole! HAHAHAHA

Here is more from the "UAB" website...

The University of Alabama School of Medicine now has responsibility for all aspects of this program: educating and training candidates for the M.D. degree, providing graduate education in biomedical and related health sciences, developing and analyzing new knowledge both in basic and in clinical sciences, and understanding and appreciating the socioeconomic factors involved in providing medical care.

It's called reading; try it sometime.

Here is the list of Medical schools accredited within the US.

I'll let you read the name.

After experiencing some of the anger and vitriol from the UAB people on these boards it's kind of peaked my interest in this sort of underground movement of angry UAB people. It's sort of interesting, and sad really.

Why people would choose the inferior school in a system of non-equals and then complain about their treatment is odd.

They may suck at football but they are hardly inferior academically and there are plenty on non medical ranked programs on that list.

Within the State, you go to UAB if you can't go to UA or AU for whatever reason, if you didn't get in, can't afford it, or can't commute etc.

This is 100%, unadulterated bull****.

How nice for them.

You and I have had this conversation before.

This thread is bound for the smack board if we don't get back on topic. Take it to PM fellas.

Yes, and I generally like you except for your dim view of the school that educated me and is currently educating my child.

BTW, she had options, too. Just sayin'.

I don't have a problem with you personally, in fact I think you are a good poster, but my perception of UAB is what it is. I see you complain about UA all the time, the BOT in particular, and the cold hard reality is UAB is a secondary school within the system. If you don't like it you should have gone to one of the other schools in the state.

I've never said my opinion should get you upset. This is just a board full of faceless screen names after all.

BTW, congratulations on beating Troy.

I have a perception of the Tuscaloosa campus, too, but let's not descend into total smack.

Wow that is delusional. I went to UAB and would not in my wildest nightmare have gone to UAT. GT or Vandy maybe, but never UAT. That is freakin funny my man. You speak only for yourself.

I'll let you read the name.

The UAB Health System (UABHS) is a partnership between UAB and the University of Alabama Health Services Foundation(UAHSF), a private not-for-profit medical practice made up of the faculty of the UAB School of Medicine. UABHS is governed by a board of directors which has representatives of UAHSF, the University of Alabama Board of Trustees, and UAB administrators. The UAB president is the ex officio chairperson of the UAB Health System. The CEO of the UABHS reports directly to the UAB Health System board and is appointed by the chairman of the board.

Nobody is talking about the health system.

We are talking about the school.

The UA School of Medicine. There is no such thing as the UAB School of Medicine.

You keep dropping something alright.

Here is the name from the Accreditation group...
The University of Alabama School of Medicine
That is definitive and there is no arguing it.

UAb is what it is, we all know what it is, even UAb fan knows what it is. No one likes it when it comes to the athletic programs, even fans of other schools, like myself, don't like it for the fans of UAb. There is one way to change it, and it is going to involve the fans of UAb becoming financial supporters of the program and the school. Until the UA BoT sees the money are realizes that it will go away if they don't change it will always remain the same. And if the UAb athletic program becomes to big of a headache, don't fear, that group will shut you down. If they will shut down a national championship hockey program at UAh, they will shut down a losing program like football at UAb.

And before you start, I know the hockey program did survive, but they did try and voted to shut that program down.

Under the state budget the medical school falls under the Birmingham campus. Have no idea about the name but Montgomery consider it to be part of UAB. Similar to the Vet school is part of Auburns budget.

That's because the school operates under the UAB President. The Dean is appointed by the UAB President but is connected to the UA BOT via a separate committee and program.

I posted the link to the explanation in the previous page.
