About Our History Story The Ohio State University College of Dentistry Park Street In 1913, a proposal was made to merge the Starling Ohio Medical College with The Ohio State University. On July 1 of 1914, the OSU Board of Trustees officially acquired the properties of the SOMC. Classes for the OSU College of Dentistry began on September 21, 1914 and graduation of its first class was held in the spring of 1915. The Theta Chapter of Omicron Kappa Upsilon, the national dental honorary society, was chartered at Ohio State in May of 1916. When The Ohio State University acquired its dental school in 1914, four years of high school and a diploma were the only requirements for admission and the dental curriculum lasted just three years. For the entering class of 1916, the curriculum was expanded to four years. By 1921, one year of college was required for admission, and in 1928 a minimum of two years was imposed. The Ohio State University College of Dentistry Hamilton Hall In 1925, the Colleges of Medicine and Dentistry moved on campus to Hamilton Hall. Dentistry was located on the third and fourth floors in the north wing. The fourth floor held the main clinic and was two stories high. The roof contained skylights to enhance the light in the clinic. (When the sun is directed to the roof, one can still see a difference in the roof tiles indicating where the skylights were once positioned.) The Ohio State University College of Dentistry Postle Hall In 1951, the College moved to a new building north of Hamilton Hall. College of Dentistry Leadership • Dr. Harry M.
