Campus and Community Involvement
Pre-Med Club
This organization is an informal gathering of students who plan to apply to medical school. Activities in the past have included: panel discussions by various health professionals, study sessions in preparation for the MCAT, guest speakers on relevant topics, a bone marrow donor drive, and social activities. See Janice Koppenhaver for information about joining.
Women in Science A supportive group of predominantly female students and faculty who meet informally to discuss issues relevant to women in science.
