MCW/Marquette Medical Alumni Association - Student Activities

Students will have an opportunity to explore and engage with MCW Alumni in a variety of specialty and research areas to discuss how to best prepare for a career in the field. Operation: Education is an event co-hosted by the MCW/Marquette Medical Alumni Association and the Wisconsin Medical Society. 

The Student/Alumni Committee is a committee of the Student Assembly and works with the Alumni Association on the Association's programs for students. In 1996, the Association opened a spot on the board of directors for the president of the student assembly.

The Alumni Association, working with the Financial Aid Office, established a low-interest loan fund for senior medical students.

Each year the Alumni Association sponsors a breakfast for incoming residents on their first day of orientation.

The hope of the Alumni Association is to have contact with students as soon as they arrive on campus. For this reason, the Alumni Association sponsors the very first social event for new medical students, a lunch held during orientation week.

A yearbook helps keep the memories of medical school and the many wonderful friendships alive forever. To assist the senior medical students with their yearbook, the Alumni Association helps underwrite the book.

This two-day event highlights the School of Graduate Studies and gives the students a chance to display the research projects they are working on. The activity includes a lunch for the students with a presentation by a nationally-recognized research scientist. The Alumni Association funds this activity because the Association feels it is important to support the efforts of Graduate School students.

The Mentor Program gives the children of alumni who are interested in attending the Medical College of Wisconsin an opportunity to talk with a member of the Alumni Association Board of Directors and hear about the College from the perspective of an alumnus.
