Jerome S. Coles Associates

These devoted alumni acknowledge the legacy of Jerome S. Coles, M.D., who graduated in 1936, from the School of Medicine, and in 1932, from the College of Arts and Science. A truly unusual physician scientist and scientific physician, he devoted his remarkable talents to his profession and his alma mater. Dr. Coles was a distinguished practicing surgeon and taught medical students, interns and residents at the Bellevue Hospital Center. After retiring from surgical practice, he joined the Philip A. Hunt Chemical Corporation, ultimately becoming its chief executive officer. Following these years in medicine and business, Dr. Coles began his "third career," as chairman of the NYU Medical Center Board, from 1977 to 1984. A most effective and imaginative leader, he formulated and provided the School with programs of excellence in research, education and patient care.
