Academical Societies

All COM Students are assigned to one of 10 Academical Societies.  Each society will be composed of approximately 25 students per class, and at least 2 faculty society advisors that act as academic and career advisors.  In order to assure that each society includes a diverse group of students, assignment to societies will be done randomly.  Students remain in their designated academical society throughout their medical school experience.  This creates a unique sense of community that students experience from their very first day in medical school.  Each society organizes a program of peer advising―the core of creating not only a four-year relationship between students but also between alumni of the society. Student-student and student-faculty interaction is fostered through academic/professional programs and social gatherings.  Academical Societies meet monthly with their advisors to ensure continued line of communication and serve as the formal structure and democracy for student input to COM Student Government Association.
