Medical Doctor

I believe he was the first Jordan to receive a college (not to mention medical school) degree.

As an undergraduate, he was a member of the Wesleyan Masonic Club.

In medical school, his address was given as Charleston, WV and he was a member Phi Chi Medical Fraternity. He was a member of the West Virginia Club and the Bull Montanaum Club.

From his 1926 Medical School yearbook:

Emory Vinton Jordan CHARLESTON, W. VA. Phi Chi West Virginia Club; Bull Montanaum Club; West Virginia Wesleyan; University of West Virginia. " Vint " is what we know the above by. He comes from the mountains of West Virginia. There he received his preliminary training as a student in various fields. For four long and laborious years he has struggled with us, bearing our ups and downs with a true mountaineer spirit. Some of us feel that we hardly know him, yet we, who have penetrated the outer shell of a qniet and pensive character know him to be a warm friend of genuine worth. As the future, in all its splendor, passes each of us, we feel that his happy and melodious laugh shall forever be with us, and we express our good wishes for abundancy of success and renown.
