While on the Northwest Campus, medical students are welcome to participate as a part of the medical community. While not required to attend, they are encouraged to do so. Each academic period during the year, a Student Luncheon Meetings are held. These are called by the Assistant Dean of the Northwest Campus to provide students with informal and uninterrupted group academic counseling sessions. In addition to providing time to become acquainted with the Northwest Campus staff and to get together with other students, they receive academic counseling and general information issued from the medical school, as well as from the local community.
Lunch is provided by the campus.
These events are held at a local restaurant courtesy of various pharmaceutical representatives with residents hosting appropriate pre-selected speakers.
