Medical Student Returns to Participate in “Paging All Docs” Program
Former Exercise Science student Garret Powell ’10 recently returned to Truman to participate in Truman’s “Paging All Docs” program. Powell, a first year medical student at the University of Missouri and native of Macon, MO, serves as a Student Ambassador for the MU Medical School. While on Truman’s campus, Powell shared his perspectives on medical school, the admissions process, and how to best prepare oneself for the rigors of medical school. “Truman’s Exercise Science Program prepared me incredibly well for the intensive medical school course work and also put me a step ahead of my medical school classmates” said Powell, “There has yet to be concept in medical school that I did not already see at Truman.”
