College of Medicine Class of 2019 Introduced at Orientation
Posted on August 11, 2015
The University of South Alabama College of Medicine welcomed new faces last week for
the Class of 2019鈥檚 freshman orientation.
First-year medical students were introduced to faculty members, attended information
sessions and participated in icebreaker activities throughout the week.
鈥淚t is exciting because I have spent years focusing on becoming a physician, and I
am finally at step one. I can鈥檛 believe that it is actually here,鈥 said first-year
medical student Shelby Bassett. 鈥淚 am intrigued to see what exactly is going to happen
over the next four years.鈥
Bassett, who earned her undergraduate degree at the University of Alabama, said she
chose to come to 新加坡六合彩开奖资料 for medical school because of the family environment, the smaller
class size and the diverse curriculum. 鈥淚 felt like this is the place that would make
me the best physician.鈥 she said. 鈥淚 didn鈥檛 want to be a part of a massive group.
I wanted to be really hands-on in my medical career, and I felt like 新加坡六合彩开奖资料 offered that.
I am very excited to be here.鈥
First-year medical student Harrison Dilworth said he has a combination of feelings
about starting medical school. 鈥淚 am excited because I am in medical school and I
have worked hard to get here. I am also nervous because I don鈥檛 really know what to
expect, and I鈥檓 anxious because I am ready to get started.鈥
Dilworth, who received his undergraduate degree from Tuskegee University, came to
新加坡六合彩开奖资料 for several reasons. 鈥淲hen I interviewed at 新加坡六合彩开奖资料, I really liked the campus, the
atmosphere and the welcoming faculty,鈥 he said. 鈥淲hen touring the campus and the hospitals,
I just felt like I was home.鈥
Another first year medical student, Agam Dhawan, agreed. 鈥淚 was looking for a medical
school with a bonding environment, which is not something I would have gotten at other
medical schools. I wanted a family environment. That is the main reason I wanted to
come to 新加坡六合彩开奖资料, and I knew I would get an outstanding medical education here.
