Ohio Secretary of State to speak at
June 2, 2008
When the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine presents its 29th class of physicians and surgeons on the morning of Saturday, June 7, it not only will mark the beginning of a bright future for 106 newly conferred doctors, but the continuation of OU-COM’s tradition of serving Ohioans from every corner of the state.
According to an OU-COM news release, the Class of 2008 will join a distinguished and notable alumni network of more than 2,300 doctors who serve in every field of medicine as well as in research, scholarship and community service. More than 62 percent of OU-COM alumni practice in Ohio, with some 44 percent working in rural and underserved communities of fewer than 50,000 residents.
“It has always been the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine’s mission to keep the great state of Ohio strong, providing outstanding physicians to serve the medical needs of our state, especially in those areas that are underserved and lack access to quality medical care,” John Schriner, director of admissions and an assistant professor in the College of Osteopathic Medicine, said in the release. “We will continue in our efforts to recruit and admit exceptional students who will feed our mission and help meet the needs
