Prompt #6 Observing Community

          The campus organization pertaining to my field is MSU AMSA (American Medical Student Association). I use to be apart of this organization but due to schedule conflicts I am no longer able to participate.  This organization represents themselves as the future of medicine within the Michigan State campus.

          The meeting I was able to attend was very interesting and informative. A surgeon stopped by to talk to us about his medical school journey. He talked about how he studied every single day more then he slept. He use to study until 2 in the morning then sleep till 6 then study again.  He never went out, but in the end it was all worth it.

          The benefit of this organization is the network it establishes. Almost every person in med school/ was in med school has been part of AMSA. With this being said, it allows pre-med student to have a connection already established with people who will be their future employers. They use job fairs and events to bring students into the organization which allows a greater network, and allows more communication between people within the organization.
