Getting geared up for the journey ahead
With the summer months behind us, we are gearing up for an exciting year for the Windsor Program. With Medical Foundations Week behind us we are looking forward to the Canadian Federation of Medical Students Annual General Meeting and a successful academic year.Reflecting on the past few years and eagerly looking forward
I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to serve in the Windsor Program in many capacities. And I’d like to extend my thanks to so many people who have supported me. While I’m stepping down from my position as Assistant Dean, I look forward to continuing to teaching and interacting with all the faculty, staff and students.
New Beginnings
All our students and residents will be experiencing something new this year. Adapting to new schedules, modes of learning and living spaces can take some time. The LEW office is available to support all student and learner needs throughout their years at Schulich Medicine
