VCOM - Carolinas 2017 Yearbook

CAROLINAS HIGHLIGHTS

3 In October, VCOM-Carolinas campus shined a light on the growing Northside community like never before after being selected to participate in a city- wide public art challenge funded by Bloomberg Philanthropies. Seeing Spartanburg in a New Light lit up the city with crowds visiting nine installations, and at the end of the evening, community members circled the illuminated smokestack at VCOM- Carolinas for the Grand Finale of live music, food on the grill, community fellowship and a fireworks display. 4 The Student Osteopathic Medical Association (SOMA) organization on campus coordinated a Leadership Symposium for students in October, where students addressed their leadership styles, participated in small group discussions, brainstormed ideas to develop their strengths and overcome weaknesses, and worked on their communication skills. The beautiful weather on campus allowed for outdoor activities on the lawn, and students ended the day feeling more prepared for success as future physicians and leaders in the community.
