The Visionaries Who Led The College

Pharmacy began as a department at Southwestern in 1939, eventually becoming a division. In 1948, it became a school, and Dr. Alfred Schram, a chemistry professor, was named Acting Dean. In 1949, W.D. Strother became the first Dean of the School of Pharmacy. Dr. H.F. Timmons served as Acting Dean twice, as well as serving in the capacity of Dean of the School of Health Sciences. Dr. James Scruggs served as Acting Dean in 1988. Dean David Bergman was the first dean to be hired from an off-campus location since Dr. Strother. Pharmacy became a college within SWOSU in 2004, during the deanship of Dr. David Bergman. The College moved to international prominence during the deanship of Dr. Dennis Thompson.

Acknowledgments

The editors would like to acknowledge the following individuals and institutions who provided invaluable help in compiling this commemorative history of the College of Pharmacy:

Dr. David Ralph, who had the original idea for this booklet during the planning for the 50th anniversary of the College. He provided a great deal of momentum during the project, and provided records of our staff, administration and faculty.

The staff of the Al Harris Library, who are always generous in allowing access to the Southwestern Room.

Weatherford pharmacists/alumni Ralph Magill and Smith Wycoff, who provided photographs and information about Albert Eaton and Clyde Miller.

Alumnus Randall Kourt (now deceased) and his son Mark Kourt of Thomas, who contacted the relatives of Bert Brundage, as well as Jack and Betty Love (Mr. Brundage’s daughter) who shared family photographs and memorabilia of Mr. Brundage.

The collective memories of the late Dr. H.F. Timmons and the late Dr. B.G. Keller, Jr., who knew virtually everyone associated with the College.

Our alumni, especially Betty Stephens, who contributed photographs and other momentos.

The advice and counsel of the entire 75th Anniversary Committee, chaired by Dr. Krista Brooks.

The financial support of the Southwestern Pharmacy Alumni Foundation, who paid for printing this booklet.

Dr. Pray would like to recognize the contributions of Dr. Benny French, who wrote the first edition of this booklet for the 50th anniversary. This 75th anniversary booklet is based in large part on Dr. French’s seminal work.
