Medical students at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine organize a diverse range of community, special interest and social student organizations. Through participation in these groups, students gain valuable leadership and organization skills while coordinating on-campus special events, social gatherings, educational lectures and workshops as well as volunteering both locally and internationally. The benefits and services provided by Northwestern University's student groups are available to all students without regard to any category protected by the law.
