Societies at DGSOM

The four societies were established in 2015 for the purpose of fostering longitudinal advising at DGSOM. Each Assistant Dean is assigned primary responsibility for mentoring one-fourth of each class. The Assistant Deans have a broad supportive role in student affairs, and serve as the primary contact for students in the following areas:

• Longitudinal advising, from pre-orientation to graduation
• Networking and connecting students with resources for enrichment opportunities
• Providing resources and support during times of personal, academic or professional adversity
• MSPE letters (Dean’s letters)
