拉什大学拥有近200年的历史，是美国最古老、最负盛名的医学院之一
1837年，芝加哥西区的拉什医学院最初成立，就在当时只有4000人口的风城被伊利诺伊州立法机构合并为城市的两天前
这所学校由著名外科医生和科学调查员Daniel Brainard创办，以唯一签署《美国独立宣言》的医生Benjamin Rush命名
美国医学界的一些伟大人物——威廉·希思·拜福德、克里斯蒂安·丰格、尼古拉斯·森、卢德维格·赫克托恩、弗兰克·比林斯、詹姆斯·布莱恩·赫里克和阿瑟·迪恩·贝文——此后一直在该机构工作，该机构在加入芝加哥大学后于1972年成为拉什大学
如今，该大学的教职员工、学生、研究人员、居民和研究员继续着卓越的医疗保健教育、研究和社区服务的传统，这是其创始人的指导精神的一部分
例如，拉什大学的学生在2014年约有2500人，当年通过拉什社区服务倡议计划进行了8000多小时的社区服务，而教职员工增加了3500多小时
与拉什相关的综合医院——拉什大学医学中心——是芝加哥第一家大型医院，至今仍是美国最受尊敬的医疗中心之一
除了卓越的临床表现，Rush还努力建立一种包容的文化。1847年，这是第一所授予非裔美国人David Jones Peck医学博士学位的美国医学院，并试图在课堂、医疗保健环境和实验室中延续这种多样性精神
With almost 200 years of history, Rush University is one of America’s oldest and most prestigious seats of medical learning.
Initially founded as Rush Medical College in 1837, the institution on the west side of Chicago was created just two days before the Windy City – then with a population of just 4,000 - was incorporated as a city by the Illinois state legislature.
The school was started by Daniel Brainard, a renowned surgeon and scientific investigator, and was named for Benjamin Rush, the only physician to sign the US Declaration of Independence.
Some of the great names of American medicine — William Heath Byford, Christian Fenger, Nicholas Senn, Ludvig Hektoen, Frank Billings, James Bryan Herrick and Arthur Dean Bevan— have since worked at the institution, which, after an affiliation with the University of Chicago, became Rush University in 1972.
Today the university’s faculty, students, researchers, residents and fellows continue the traditions of outstanding health care education, research and community service that were part of its founder’s guiding ethos.
For instance, Rush University’s students – who numbered around 2,500 in 2014 – carried out more than 8,000 hours of community service through the Rush Community Service Initiative Program that year, while faculty members added more than 3,500 hours.
The general hospital associated with Rush – the Rush University Medical Center – was Chicago’s first major hospital and remains one of the nation’s most highly-regarded medical centres.
As well as clinical excellence, Rush also have striven to have a culture of inclusion. It was the first American medical school to award a doctor of medicine degree to an African-American man - David Jones Peck – in 1847, and seeks to continue this spirit of diversity in its classrooms, health care settings and in the laboratory.
