Campus Wide - Community, Student Government

Contact: Email group officers

Mission
The Pre-Alumni Association of Meharry Medical College shall promote a continuously improving relationship between students, faculty, staff, and administration by providing avenues for the sharing of ideas for the good of Meharry and our mutual welfare. The main objective is to promote a spirit of cooperation. The Association and its members shall actively engage in those activities, which serve to promote unity among blacks and minorities and to provide channels for growth and progress within that same segment.

Membership Benefits
The goals of this year's administration are as follows: increase student involvement in Pre-Alumni, promote an open dialogue between the student body organizations and Pre-Alumni, create positive interaction between students of all schools, and improve student facilities. We believe that if students in each of the schools were able to take a more individual role in their student government than not only would participation in events sponsored by the Pre-Alumni Association increase, but also participation in events sponsored by other student organizations would increase. Our approach to addressing these goals is two fold:

First, we plan to work closely with other student leaders on campus to involve all students in Pre-Alumni activities and the decision making process.
Second, we plan to utilize the student life committee and work actively with faculty and staff to address student concerns.
