First Meeting!

Hey Everyone!!!

Thanks to all of those who came out to the first meeting. The board enjoyed talking to all of you and sharing our vision for the semester. We hope that you will join us on our quest to learn about Health Equity and serve the community through the topic of Children's Health. From what we have planned, this promises to be a great semester and there are plenty of ways to get involved if you choose to do so.

Yesterday at our meeting, the AMSA National Health Justice Fellow and third year UCONN medical student Dan Henderson spoke. He gave an inspirational speech about what it means to be a good doctor, tips for becoming a great doctor, and what AMSA has to offer us. The board also introduced themselves and the president of the Pre-Medical Society talked about their group.

UMD has many pre-medical groups that all offer something different. I urge anyone new to campus to give them all a try if you have the time. They contain great people, resources, and activities while all still being their own unique group.

So before I run off to class, I just wanted to mention that our next meeting is on September 22 in the Nanticoke Room of Stamp at 7pm. Even if you didn't make it to the first meeting, feel free to join us!!

Oh - and thanks to CalTor for the delicious tortilla chips!

Have a Great Day!!!
