Hi everyone,

Hope you’re all settling into the start of med school!

The Community Interest Groups, EDI Working Groups, and Global Health Portfolio will be running an Info Night happening Friday, September 5th, from 5–7pm in the Joe Doupe Concourse.

This will be an opportunity to:

Meet second-year students involved in these groups
Learn about the amazing initiatives and projects they worked on last year
Ask questions and see what you might want to get involved in this year

There will be tables set up with posters, handouts, and snacks! It’s a great way to explore opportunities, find communities you connect with, and get ideas of where you may want to be involved in medical school!

Please see below for a list of groups that will be at the event.

Kindly,

Fatima Saqib (she/her)
