School of Medicine Alumni Association

The association is a constituent society within the Indiana University Alumni Association. Active membership is open to all graduates of the School of Medicine. In addition, the association offers affiliate membership for non-graduates who are practicing physicians, individuals who have completed residency or fellowship training at the Medical Center, non-alumni members of the faculty, and friends of the school. Honorary memberships are awarded under special circumstances.

The School of Medicine’s alumni roll totals just over 16,500. Of these, 21 percent maintain active membership in the School of Medicine Alumni Association, making it the No. 1 society in terms of percentage of membership at Indiana University. This body is directed by the Medical Alumni Council composed of 24 members, elected to three-year terms.

The association sponsors several programs, including the Help Our Students Travel (HOST) program, continuing medical education, receptions in conjunction with national specialty meetings and at the regional centers, new student/parent orientation, and the Scholar-Chip Golf Outing. Additionally, the association sponsors a merchandise program offering School of Medicine apparel for students, faculty, staff, alumni, and family members.

A highlight of the year’s alumni activity is the Spring Medical Alumni Weekend, held annually on the Medical Center campus. Attracting hundreds of physicians and friends, the program includes an all-alumni reception, continuing medical education, a special Dean’s Breakfast, announcement of the Distinguished Medical Alumni Award recipient at the “strawberry shortcake luncheon,” and reunion events for special classes.
