Quispamsis Giving Medical School 50 Grand

The Saint John campus of Dalhousie Medicine NB is trying to raise 15 million dollars for labs, equipment and a research chair position.

Dr. Michael Barry says research raises the bar for the school and helps bring more jobs to the area.

Quispamsis Town Council is already jumping on board to pay five thousand dollars a year for a 10 year period.
 
Other municipal councils in the Saint John area will also be asked to contribute. The school accepted it's first 30 students in the fall, all of whom were from New Brunswick.
