The proposition that hospitals and other health care institutions, because of their complex operations, might be better administered by persons trained to deal with those complexities was an idea that came into its own after World War II. At The George Washington University, the idea took root in the fall of 1959 when President Thomas H. Carroll gave his blessing to an MBA program in Hospital Administration, housed in the then School of Government, Business, and International Affairs.
