Yes, the DO portion is essentially the basement of one building.
So intense!
how come the COM doesn't have as nice of a building as the CHM?The southernmost three-part building on that quad is Fee Hall at MSU-COM (yeah, it's an old dorm). The rest of those buildings around it are still MSU undergrad dorms.
Yeah, you'd think with 50% more students we would have bigger and better facilities! They are pretty spoiled with their new Grand Rapids campus (pictures you attached) and their remaining space in East Lansing is also really nice and updated (in our radiology building). Our current COM dean has hinted that it's his final mission before retirement to see us get a new building and I believe they're currently working through the many steps of approval. Assuming it'll be a $75-100M+ project, I'm sure it will take some time.
TUN might be an extreme example, but DO schools tend to have relatively small, more limited facilities anyway, warehouses or not.
Yeah, I was really impressed with UNE... the price tag just scared me off a bit! Haha but man I could have seen myself living in a cottage by the water.
Next year I'm living in a 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath right on the ocean. 3 year old house worth well over a million dollars, fully furnished for 2k a month. With a couple roommates, it ends up costing less than a cheap apartment back home.
I'm hoping OMS-2 isn't all that bad. Anatomy and basic OMM fall by the wayside, and those are by far my weakest subjects, but what are emphasized the most by a long shot in the first year.
Nope. PCOM was one of the two places (three if you count MSU-COM) that never gave me an interview, likely because of my lackluster volunteerism.
When it is not frozen...
Cool! Looks like they have some pretty exciting planned changes.
Yea LUCOM has a lot of money so their buildings/campus are very nice, not to mention the area is extremely pretty overall.
Marian is very pretty for sure. The area is extremely nice too - safe, lots of parks, basically have the city in the background. I really liked the area a whole lot when I interviewed.
They only had like granola bars/bagels when I went. I definitely felt like they skimped out on us heh... Add that to the list of the many tiny reasons that had an additive effect on why I did not decide to attend there.
idk about homely, but it would be cool for schools to have buildings like MSU's CHM. I feel like at most schools, facilities are too limited, especially with respect to class sizes. But, I guess there just isn't enough money for larger facilities.
Welp, like many things, we will agree to disagree heh.
again, this seems to be an issue with most schools anyway. PCOM-GA, for example, houses multiple programs in its warehouse and even expanded its class size not long after opening.
On the topic of retrofitting, from the picture of Touro Middletown, it totally looks like a rehabbed Ramada or Holiday Inn Express.
