FSU to honor the late Myra Hurt, "Mother of the College of Medicine"
The Florida State University community is still remembering the esteemed retired professor Myra Hurt after she died last August. She was 75.
To continue celebrating Hurt’s life, FSU's College of Medicine will be holding a tribute 2-4p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 27, in the college’s Durell Peaden Auditorium, 1115 W. Call St. Theevent is open to the public.
“Dr. Hurt is literally referred to as the mother of the College of Medicine,” the medical school's interim dean, Dr. Alma Littles, told the Tallahassee Democrat. “You can’t really say FSU College of Medicine without thinking of Dr. Myra Hurt.”
