School of <strong>Medicine</strong> & Health Sciences living UND brand promise<br />

UND adopted a brand promise recently, describing the University as “an environment filled with an innovative, creative,<br />

and entrepreneurial spirit.” Nowhere on campus is this more alive than the School of <strong>Medicine</strong> and Health Science.<br />

Students and faculty epitomize these characteristics each and every day in their approaches to rural health, groundbreaking<br />

research, and first-class patient care. It’s inspiring.<br />

Equally inspirational is your commitment to supporting this spirit. Your spirit of philanthropy<br />

is vital to ensuring the school is able to attract the brightest students by offering abundant<br />

scholarships, retain world-class faculty who lead by example, and support the outstanding<br />

programs and community service work for which the school is so highly regarded.<br />

● During the last fiscal year, the School of <strong>Medicine</strong> and Health Sciences<br />

partnered with 996 donors who committed more than $11.5 million<br />

to support the school—that’s fantastic!<br />

● 12 commitments were made to establish new endowments benefiting students,<br />

faculty, and programs (including two who have requested no publicity).<br />

● $210,596 was awarded in scholarships for our medical students—<br />

an all-time record!<br />
