Hi Les Buell,
Have you tried here:
Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons:
http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/dept/ps/
In 1860, by agreement between the Trustees of the two institutions (Columbia
College and the College of Physicians and Surgeons), the College of Physicians
and Surgeons became the Medical Department of Columbia College, from that
time on the diplomas of the graduates were signed by the President of Columbia
College as well as by the President of the College of Physicians and Surgeons.
The connection was only a nominal one, however, until 1891, when the college
was incorporated as an integral part of the University.
I hope this information is useful or, at least, interesting.

* L'Shannah Tovah (li-SHAH-nuh TOH-vuh; li-shah-NAH toh-VAH)
Hebrew. Lit. for a good year. The common greeting during Rosh ha Shannah and
the Days of Awe. This is a shortening of "L'Shannah tovah tikatev v'taihatem"
(or, to women, "L'Shannah tovah tikatevi v'taihatemi"), which means, "May you
be inscribed and sealed for a good year." This year, the two-day Jewish
Biblical Festival of Rosh ha Shannah (Lev. 23:23-25) will begin at sunset on Monday,
September 29 on the civil calendar.
