Second Meeting Summary

Hello hello!!!

Thanks to all of those who came out to our second meeting! Things are really starting to come along and I am excited tosee some of the projects we crank out over the semester.

For those of you unfortunate enough to have missed it, Dr. Woodie Kessel gave us a brief overview about Children's Health. Dr. Kessel has been a pediatrician for 30+ years and was an assistant to the Surgeon General for a period of time. After his presentation we broke up into small groups for a few minutes to discuss possible ideas for projects we could work on throughout the semester. Next meeting we will have feasble projects in mind to work on, and members will be able to join a project that they are interested in and help put it together.

Updates on outside activities:
9/23: Pre-Health Fair in Grand Ballroom Lounge - tons of pre-health groups will be speaking starting at 5pm. Check it out!
