Shantou Exchange Students - joining Class of 2029
by Pre-Clerkship UGME 28 Jan '26

28 Jan '26

Class of 2029, We are excited to be welcoming five exchange students and one preceptor from Shantou, China to the Pre‑Clerkship program starting in February. Until now, this exchange has involved Clerkship only; this year, we will have students join our Medicine Year 1 program between February 3 - April 24, 2026. The exchange students will take part in lectures and labs with your cohort. For tutorials, they will form their own small group while following the curriculum in parallel with the rest of the class. I hope you will help welcome them starting next week by introducing yourself, helping them find their way on campus, sharing recommendations about Winnipeg, and inviting them to participate in student activities where possible.

CL2029: Minimizing distractions in lecture theatre
by Pre-Clerkship UGME 27 Jan '26

27 Jan '26

Hi Med 1's, It has been observed that at times that when lecturers are ready to begin - and during presentations - conversations may still be happening in the audience. Socialization is completely welcome while waiting for sessions to start, but please wrap these up when the presentation is about to begin. To support a respectful learning environment for both your classmates and the presenter(s) while presentations are underway, please keep side conversations to a minimum. If something needs your immediate attention, please step outside to avoid distractions for the presenter or others in the audience. Otherwise, please save those discussions until the presentation has wrapped up. Thank you for your help maintaining a positive experience for everyone! Maggie Eade, Pre-Clerkship Program Lead, UGME Max Rady College of Medicine | Rady Faculty of Health Sciences | University of Manitoba 260 Brodie Centre - 727 McDermot Avenue, Winnipeg MB, R3E 3P5 p: 204.272.3132 e: preclerkship(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:preclerkship@umanitoba.ca>

Notice of Delay: Entrada Absence Request Responses Jan 29 - Feb 2
by Pre-Clerkship UGME 22 Jan '26

22 Jan '26

Hi Med 1's and 2's, Please be advised that there will be delays in responses to absence requests submitted in Entrada between Thursday, January 29 - Monday, February 2. Requests submitted during this period will be reviewed starting February 3. If you are planning flex days during the above 3-day period, your absence request should have already been submitted, right? (the attendance policy requires 3 weeks' notice for anticipated absences). If you have not yet submitted a request and know you will need time away, please submit this as soon as possible and no later than noon on Tuesday, January 27 to allow time for review. For unanticipated/short notice absences (these still happen!), expect that a response will likely come after the session has passed. The important part is that you submit your request in advance of the session you will miss as we can see the timestamp. There is no need to follow up with our office regarding your request -- this will be reviewed starting Feb 3, in the order received in Entrada. Thank you! Maggie Eade, Pre-Clerkship Program Lead, UGME Max Rady College of Medicine | Rady Faculty of Health Sciences | University of Manitoba 260 Brodie Centre - 727 McDermot Avenue, Winnipeg MB, R3E 3P5 p: 204.272.3132 e: preclerkship(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:preclerkship@umanitoba.ca>
