Wednesday • March 26, IS I Health Symposium aids career searc By Jackie Vratil The Battalion In the MSC Flagroom Tuesday, students in terested in a health profession investigated pro fessional school options. The seventh annual Health Symposium, put together by the Executive Council of Health Or ganizations, brought in schools ranging from medicine to dentistry to veterinary medicine for students. Tracie Multer, a council member and a senior biomedical science major, said the purpose of the event was to help students decide if the health profession is for them. “This is a service for students planning on go ing into health care,” she said. “Students also can use this opportunity to get to know the different schools, and the schools get to know them.” Amanda Alford, a sophomore biology major, said this is the first year she attended the sym posium, and found it informative. “I found out where the cut lines are and about the application process,” she said. “It (the sym posium) gave me information that I would have otherwise never known.” “This is a service for students planning on going into health care.” there have been students who havealreadvt* accepted and just have some questions.” Carpenter said he wants to show student! Baylor is not as cut-throat as some think. ■ (I "We are very family orientated,” he said 1 * e| do not simply want to !'» u | doctors, we want to:* if physicians.” Mol John O’Brian, execudiM’d rector for the Princeton■ a t| view, said theudmissionrM in [ Dr. Jim Wagner, the associate director for Stu dent Affairs with UT Southwestern Medical School, said he answered a wide range of ques tions at the symposium. “We take large numbers of Aggies every year,” he said. “Last year, they were tied for first (in num ber accepted). That is the reason why we come to ac tivities like this.” Alford said she plans on coming back to future years’ symposiums be cause she viewed this year’s as strictly informational. “When I come back next year or the year after, I plan on making the decision of where I want to go to medical school," she said. Robert Carpenter, a student member of the Committee of Admissions for Baylor College of Medicine, said they come to Texas A&M two to three times a year to speak to students. “I have talked to all ages of students,” he said. “There have been students who want to change to a major within some kind of medical field and sophomores get a head start.
