KELLOGG CLUSTER GROUP MEETING
                         MARCH 26, 1993
                             MINUTES





Present were:  Mitchell Berk, Tim Canterbury, Steve Cody, Steve
               Fish, Susan Jackman, Bryan Larsen, David Leppla,
               Maurice Mufson, and Linda Savory.

 
     Directors of courses considered to be wholly involved in
Kellogg change are to work in clusters to achieve a working
syllabus prior to the end of this semester (Year I:  Epi\Biostat,
Physical Diagnosis, Intro to Medicine, Neuroscience, Organ
Systems/Microphysiology, Human Sexuality, Behavioral Medicine; Year
II:  Physical Diagnosis, Community Medicine, Intro to Clinical
Medicine, Psychopathology, and Genetics).  They are responsible for
their meeting schedules.  They will submit a written proposal to
the Council of Course Directors for approval on May 28.

     The basic science courses are to account for 10-15% of class
time spent in Kellogg content such as case-based problem solving. 
They are to submit a written proposal to the Council of Course
Directors for approval on May 28.  This proposal also should
describe a test format supporting problem-solving.

     The group accepted a proposal to construct a notebook of 4-8
cases.  Course directors would explore portions of the cases
relevant to their course with assistance of appropriate clinicians. 
Discussion ensued regarding whether the courses would change from
year to year, whether the students should work in groups, who would
grade and how would we grade the notebooks.  Course directors are
to respond in writing before the next Council of Course Directors
meeting.

     Dr. Savory will propose the general cases at the next CCD
meeting on May 28.






                                                                  
                                                         
                                   Linda M. Savory, M.D.

                  KELLOGG CLUSTER GROUP MEETING
                         APRIL 16, 1993
                             MINUTES


Present were:  Mitchell Berk, Steven Cody, Susan Jackman, David
               Leppla, Maurice Mufson, and John Szarek.


Several handouts were distributed at the meeting, and those not
attending will receive them in the mail.


Topics discussed at this meeting were:

     -    Selecting four cases from the ten cases given.  Six to
          eight of the most frequently selected cases will be
          included in the case booklet.

     -    Discussion of how courses are truly multidisciplinary,
          i.e., opportunities to tie in course material,
          particularly case-related material, across course
          boundaries.

     -    A consistent approach needs to be implemented for each
          semester - whether problem-based or problem-solving
          format will be used.

All course directors are to write to Dr. Savory on the above topics
by April 23.  This will allow time to prepare a composite report
for the April 29 Council of Course Directors' meeting.
