VCOM - Carolinas 2016 Yearbook

2015-2016 YEARBOOK

Timothy J. Kowalski, DO, FACN Dean for the Carolinas Campus T hroughout the 2015-2016 school year, I have witnessed the real impact of VCOM–Carolinas students in the local community and beyond. It is evident in their joy of altruism as they volunteer with local organizations, coordinate wellness events, and eagerly participate in international outreach trips. I am proud to recognize the professional accomplishments of our students, as many have been named to national leadership roles in a variety of professional associations, while others have participated and presented at regional and national conferences and meetings throughout the year. The Carolinas campus was able to showcase the work of our students during our inaugural Research Day event, and others have shared their findings through publications in national medical journals. VCOM–Carolinas students are truly following the path of our College mission through their endeavors in outreach, research, and service to others. Through their efforts, these future physicians benefit from the practical experience that supplements their medical education, and will continue to grow through opportunities to serve those most in need.
