  • Dear Ms. Gaina: As the Executive Vice President of Monroe College, I
    Ms. Jean-Didier Gaina August 1, 2016 Offce of Postsecondary Education U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Avenue SW, Room 6W232B Washington, DC 20202 RE: DOCKET NUMBER ED-2015-OPE-0103 Dear Ms. Gaina: As the Executive Vice President of Monroe College, I write regarding the proposed Defense to Repayment Rule (“Rule”) as published in the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on June 13, 2016. At Monroe College, we have consistently championed an approach to higher education that focuses on: • Student outcomes across all institution types • Constructive policies that encourage and permit responsive actions from institutions that positively impact students • Transparency in data and process Our comments on the Rule focus on two areas: • A concern that the proposed Repayment Rate Warning does not adequately protect or inform students and refects a fawed approach that jeopardizes the entire Rule • Risks stemming from an overly broad Borrower Defense Framework will lead to unintended consequences that harm community colleges, HBCUs, and other institutions that provide access to underrepresented students For 83 years, Monroe College has consistently produced some of the best outcomes in the country for urban and low-income minority students. We have one of the highest graduation rates and one of the lowest default rates for the populations we serve. We are proud of the recognition we have earned as a model for increasing student access and the resources we allocate to student support services, including fnancial literacy, student loan counseling, remediation and career services. Given that Monroe is located in the poorest congressional zip code in the country, we are a laboratory for many of the great higher education policy debates, particularly those that relate to access for minorities and low-income students, graduation rates, student debt, college readiness, or employment outcomes.

  • Orientation 2020 Md1
    NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION 2020 MD1 June 29 – 30 Office of Admissions and Student Affairs NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION 2020 MD1 Dear Morehouse School of Medicine Student: Our school is graced by an overwhelming number of exceptionally well-qualified applicants. You are in good company, and I am delighted to help you begin your journey into the remark- able profession of medicine. Professional school study is a time of exploration and immersion in your desired specialty. It is a time for the free exchange of ideas, acquisition of new skills, and creation of knowledge. It is a time when faculty will change from being your teachers to being mentors and colleagues. Morehouse School of Medicine was founded in 1975 as the Medical Education Program at Morehouse College. In 1981, Morehouse School of Medicine became an independently chartered institution and the first established at a Historically Black College and University in the 20th century. Our focus on primary care and addressing the needs of the underserved is critical to improving overall health care. During the course of my career, I have had the privilege to work in several other major health sciences centers, and I believe our faculty is second to none. Our faculty and staff are commit- ted to exceptional teaching, research, and patient care. We will never lose sight of the respon- sibility to guide, support, and teach. Morehouse School of Medicine has graduated many med- ical students over the years, and we remain the leading educator of primary care physicians in the United States. Our medical school is inextricably linked to our principal teaching hospital, Grady Memorial Hospital, and several affiliates: The Atlanta VA, WellStar Atlanta Medical Center, and Chil- dren’s Healthcare of Atlanta.
