A member of the University's medical

has been serving as associate dean of the
LSU School of Medicine in New Orleans
since 1954, and is also professor and head

from 1920-1922. He received his

faculty. He has served as acting dean
of the New Orleans Medical School on
several occasions.
Dr. Hull is also a senior visiting physi-cian
on the staff of the Charity Hospital
of Louisiana at New Orleans, and holds
medical staff appointments at the Baptist,
Hotel Dieu, and Mercy Hospitals, as well
as the Touro Infirmary, all in New Or-leans.
An authority in the field of cardiology,
Dr. Hull is a diplomate of the American
Board of Internal Medicine, and has served
as a visiting member of the medical facul-ties
of universities in Formosa and Italy
for short periods since World War II. Dr.
Hull has taught all of the 2,893 physi-cians
who have earned the LSU doctor of

For several years, Dr. Hull has been
working with Shreveport medical and busi-ness
interests on the establishment of a
medical school there, and later appeared
before legislative committees and the Gov-ernor
in efforts to bring about the Shreve-port
medical school.
