I posted some info on this on another thread-but rather than individually email the details:
"OPAC's mission is to elect oteopathic friendly candidates to Congress"
I just attended the AOA House of Delegates in Chicago as well as attending one of four Council of Osteopathic Student Government President's meeting. COSGP attained 100% membership to the student chairmen's club-we all had our reasons, but as a group we wanted to make a statement that we care about the future of our profession.
Very few student's are aware of OPAC and in todays political climate, for better or worse, $ talks and allows for influence on capitol hill.
Contact Joanna Burton, Director of OPAC at
[email protected]
also please tell her that a COSGP member referred you, even if you don't join, so she knows that her great presentation to our group was not a waste of time, also it demonstrates to the AOA that COSGP is doing its job as a student leadership organization-if you want to know who represents your school at COSGP - right know it is most likely your student body pres and vice-pres...encourage them to do a OPAC presentation--and please e-mail Joanna
The student chairmen's club is only $52.00 for a year and it puts you ina pretty exclusive group-at the HOD I hung out with the pres of the AOA, etc. and met the Senator from Illinois, who addressed the Chairmen's Club in the AOA boardroom during our cocktail party--if you attend any AOA meeting this year-you will receive invites to such events--and also political events in your state
Thanks for your interest!!!!
