ELAM News to Know
A Report from ELAM at the AAMC's GFA Annual Meeting
Nancy Spector and Diane Magrane attended the annual meeting of the Group on Faculty Affairs last week in Vancouver.
 |
| | Darshana Shah speaks at the
GFA meeting. |
GFA members were celebrating the 10th anniversary of the formation of the group by the AAMC and the ELAM influence was apparent - Diane Magrane and Page Morahan's involvement in the founding, 5 out of the 10 of the group's past chairs being ELUMs (Karen Novielli, Mary Moran, Luanne Thorndyke, Roberta Sonnino, and Darshana Shah), and a number of ELUMs that have served on the steering committee and subcommittees. The capstone was the honoring of Luanne Thorndyke with the Carole J. Bland Phronesis award for dedicated and selfless promotion of faculty vitality. It was an inspirational meeting, and a pleasure to see such a large confluence of ELUMs mentoring and leading within the organization.

The Last Word
AAMC CFAS News, July 15, 2016:
And finally, the Pokémon Go craze that swept the country this week has swept its way into academic medical centers. The Washington Post reported on a number of injuries caused by people wandering around looking at the cute, cartoonish virtual world displayed on their phones rather than the cold, hard real world surrounding them on all sides. And an Arizona health sciences campus went so far as to send a warning to its students reading, "We are aware that our campus [has] been invaded by Pokemon. We believe they are friendly. Please approach them with caution and remember to look up from your phone to prevent tripping or running into something."
