The Thomas Aquinas College (TAC) Medical Society is a new organization for pre-medical, pre-dental, and pre-nursing students at Thomas Aquinas College.
The College's curriculum is a strong liberal arts program, and pre-health students, like us, choose it as their undergraduate education because professional schools, like medical schools and nursing programs, have seen liberal arts students excel as caregivers.

The number one killer in The United States does not discriminate between the poor and the rich, does not care about ethnicity, nor the location of the victim. The New York Road Runners Organization in New York City believes in preventing obesity through the promotion of exercise. Getting people exited about exercising and improving themselves physically (we believe) is the cure for the national epidemic. Being able to measure physical improvement by watching mile splits gradually decrease creates an impetus to get healthier.
