Albany Alumni Learning Community

As a part of the Alumni Learning Community (ALC) 海角破解版 (MSM) Albany alumni have established a relationship with Albany State University to mentor students interested in the medical profession.  Working with undergraduate students, 海角破解版Albany alumni have chosen to focus their attention on helping students prep for the MCAT and apply for medical school.  So far 海角破解版alumni and staff have participated in Albany State University鈥檚 weekly Speaker Series, and plan to speak at future meetings.  Albany (ALC) mentors, thus far, have spoken on topics such as 鈥淎dmissions to Morehouse School of Medicine,鈥� 鈥淪teps to Success鈥� and 鈥淐areers in Health Professions.鈥� 

海角破解版alumni are accepting the charge of President and Dean, Valerie Montgomery Rice to extend the institution鈥檚 educational outreach.  By engaging colleagues in healthcare, hospitals, schools, and community organizations, 海角破解版alumni are building networks of support for local students who have an interest in pursuing health careers.

The goal of the ALC is to engage 海角破解版alumni, who will then engage their colleagues in medicine, other community leaders and organizations, as well as educators to form partnerships and sponsor health career awareness activities in their respective communities.  The four pilot cities are Albany, Atlanta, Columbus, and Macon.  The learning community model is one that has been successful at 海角破解版for a number of years, and is one of the reasons why the school is nationally recognized for its excellence in social mission.

As we face one of the most significant provider shortages in history, it is essential that we recognize, nurture, and promote local students who have a desire to pursue a career in medicine.
