PRITZKER<br />

SOCIETIES<br />

In addition to becoming a member <strong>of</strong> our <strong>Pritzker</strong><br />

community, you will also become a member <strong>of</strong> a society.<br />

The four societies, named after famous <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Chicago</strong> physicians and researchers, serve primarily as<br />

social and advising networks.<br />

Your society will have<br />

members from all four classes, and we hope you will<br />

develop strong friendships with those people throughout<br />

your time at <strong>Pritzker</strong>. Societies take part in many events<br />

throughout the year, from fun dinners out to volunteering<br />

to attending various events in the city. Each society has<br />

great advisors who look forward to giving you career advice<br />

or just chatting about life. While societies are chosen<br />

randomly, we are confident your society will be a great fit.<br />

We look forward to having you join one <strong>of</strong> our societies!<br />
