    Re: You and Your Schedule

    Dear Student, It’s been a while since our last exchange. I hope all is well with you and you’re getting off to a good start this semester. This letter is in response to your missed appointment. During the faculty’s professional development week, a senior physician said, “the hardest part of being a doctor is showing up!” He emphasized the importance of professionalism and being available to address the needs of patients. This physician shared his insights with us to emphasize

    You, Medicine, & Cultural Awareness

    Dear Student, This week, I am writing this letter to share with you an incredible resource for the holiday break. As our semester ends, I hope you are happy with the progress you've made.

    3 Reasons to GO TO CLASS!

    Dear Student, How are you? Yes, it’s me again. You know, the professor with the long dreadlocks who you frequently mistake for another student. I am writing you this week to talk about your reasons for not attending class. From what I understand, you do not see the value in going to live lectures. You prefer to watch the lecture captures according to your schedule because the video recordings empower you to pause the lesson, write notes, and prepare for exams at your own pace

    Dear Student,

    I appreciate you taking the time to come and meet with me during office hours. It is a pleasure to get to know more about you and your reasons for pursuing a medical education. Without reservation, I can admit that it is my honor to have the responsibility to play a role in your learning trajectory as one member of an incredible team in the education department. I am writing this letter to encourage you and to offer some advice. It is a pleasure to understand that your backgr
