Council of
Osteopathic Student Government Presidents (COSGP)
 |
|
| |
|
| In
addition to the Student Government Association, OU-COM students are
given a voice through the Council of Osteopathic Student Government
Presidents (COSGP). This governing body unites student leaders from each of the 28
schools of
osteopathic medicine to handle issues of concern to ALL medical students. The osteopathic medical school family has been growing
significantly. Below is a map of the locations of each school.
Part of the COSGP
mission is to encourage medical students to continue one of the
basic tenets of the osteopathic philosophy: a commitment to
improving the health of our communities through service.
Toward that end, TOUCH (Translating Osteopathic Understanding into
community Health) initiative recognizes the commitment of
our students and schools on local and national levels. TOUCH
is essentially volunteerism. Each student who earns fifty
hours or more of TOUCH service receives a TOUCH pin.
