Upstate Medical University unveiled bronze statues of two of its most influential graduates in October 2025. The statues stand in what has been nicknamed in their honor as "the Courtyard of the Founding Mothers," outside the main building of Upstate's medical school.
Sculptor Carolyn Palmer discusses her creation of the statues of Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell and Dr. Sarah Loguen Fraser. Blackwell was the first woman to earn a medical degree in the United States, graduating in 1849 from Geneva College of Medicine, which today is Upstate Medical University. And Loguen Fraser, who graduated in 1876, was one of the nation’s first female African American physicians -- and the first female doctor in the Dominican Republic.
