Medical Humanities Interest Group (MHIG)

The Medical Humanities Interest Group brings a fresh and relaxing atmosphere to the students of The School of Medicine. The group stresses the importance of integrating the arts and the practice of medicine. A few of the activities include volunteer opportunities, First Fridays, participating in the Healing Arts Contest, musicals, plays, and crafts.. We hope to continue Drs. William and Marjorie Sirridge’s efforts in perpetuating the message of the integration of the healing arts and medicine. Any questions regarding the group can be emailed to Sarah McKee.
