Office of Faculty Affairs at The Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences
Thank your Preceptors!
Whether you are going through clerkships or doing clinical rotations, most likely you are working side by side with our volunteer faculty. More than teaching you clinical skills, they are the ones devoting their time and sharing the stories that shape your learning experience.
We invite you to take a moment and reflect on those experiences and write a thank you note to that faculty member that have encourage you, challenge you or make you feel that you belong.
Thank you for sharing those notes with us! You will see them displayed in faculty-related events.
