Progress Notes
Our students share their thoughts and stories in the Progress Notes blog. In a recent post, incoming first-year student, Hannah Todd, wrote about starting medical school during a pandemic.
"To me, diversity is less about walking into a room and seeing different colors and more about hearing about what people with different backgrounds bring to the table because of that. The international population at Baylor College of Medicine and in Houston lends itself to having bigger conversations. From my own experience, having gone to college in a mostly white midwestern area, it has been really informative to see how people from different backgrounds engage with their communities and engage in dialogues with each other."
Four Years in Two Minutes
In celebration of their graduation, we took a look back at the time the class of 2019 has spent at Baylor. Students participated in many landmark events and their entire journey was recorded on our Facebook page.
"I was born and raised in Pennsylvania. Before I came here I didn't know what to expect in Houston. Would everyone be cowboys? Houston is a diverse place with so many things to do. I even like the weather. It's a great place to live and really affordable."
