WSU Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine students are making an impact beyond the classroom!
Last month, medical students represented the College at the Washington State Medical Association (WSMA) Annual Meeting in Spokane, participating in policy discussions, building professional connections, and taking on leadership opportunities.
Students represented WSU in the House of Delegates, assumed leadership roles within the WSMA Medical Student Section, and explored ways to strengthen their involvement in organized medicine.
MS1 Isabela Lydston also spoke at the WSMA Foundation Gala, while MS3 Madelyn Hartrim-Lowe was elected student trustee on the WSMA Board of Trustees.
In another important achievement, WSU students co-authored the resolution “Sustainability and Retention for Child Abuse Medical Teams,” which was adopted with amendments by the WSMA House of Delegates.
We’re proud of our students for bringing their perspectives to statewide conversations and advocating for policies that support physicians, patients, and communities across Washington. ❤️
