Sixteen enthusiastic students from Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee have been selected to serve as Mississippi State’s inaugural Pre-Health Ambassadors for the 2019-20 academic year.
Chosen from 50 applicants, this year’s ambassadors are assisting with events, mentorship, and recruitment and marketing efforts for the university’s Dr. A. Randle and Marilyn W. White Health Professions Resource Center located in Harned Hall, Room 116.
Under the direction of MSU Assistant Clinical Professor Mary Celeste Reese, the universitywide center provides application assistance, mock interviews, scholarships, workshops and other assistance and opportunities to undergraduate students of any academic major who are seeking to gain entry into medical, dental and other health professional schools.
The 2019-20 group includes Mary Mae Strickland of Mathiston, a junior biological sciences major.
