The four societies were established in 2015 for the purpose of fostering longitudinal advising at DGSOM. Each society is led by an Assistant Dean for Student Affairs who has 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
- Assisting the Associate Dean for Student Affairs with the preparation of the Medical Student Performance Evaluation (MSPE) for residency applications
