As a member of the reunion committee, you will join fellow classmates and Alumni Relations staff to:

• Promote reunion activities and invite classmates via social media, email and phone calls
• Plan your class dinner if applicable
• Help to raise money for a class gift
• Provide feedback during committee conference calls

Philadelphia-area alumni or affiliate faculty who are in primary care are invited to serve as preceptors in their own practices every spring. This is an opportunity to engage with current medical students and have a real impact on their learning and possibly career choice. Preceptors are asked to serve 12 hours a week for six weeks. The next opportunity to volunteer as a preceptor will be in the Spring of 2016. Contact Natalie Toroni, program coordinator, for more information at natalie.toroni@drexelmed.edu or 215.991.8554.
