Student-Led Initiatives
MCW Common Read
Led by Olivia Davies | MD Candidate
The Kern Institute is proud to partner with MCW medical students to unite the MCW community through a common reading experience, building a foundation for the growth of relationships, self and purpose.
This year, it is with great excitement that we announce the selection of Dr. Rana Awdish’s novel, In Shock: My Journey from Death to Recovery and the Redemptive Power of Hope, as our first MCW Common Read.
Common Read Book Club Poster Presentation
Authors: Olivia Davies, Sehr Khan, Wendy Peltier, Cassie Ferguson, Martin Muntz
In-person book discussions are attended by only a fraction of the community due to distance, scheduling constraints, and competing commitments.
Social media may be powerful tools to augment connection and engagement to support a common goal or new initiative.
MCW Med Moth
Led by Lauren Curwick | MD Candidate
The Kern Institute is excited to partner with MCW medical students to present a live storytelling series inspired by The Moth. MCW students are invited to share first-hand narratives of their medical school journey without notes, scripts or props to a live audience. There is no need to RSVP. Please join us.
