About the event
Join us for a special Afro Scouts Chess Club session featuring the Black Medical Students Association (BMSA) from Arizona State University!
The BMSA is dedicated to increasing the retention, graduation, and matriculation of pre-medical, health, and science students. Founded in Fall 2014, the organization works to support collegiate students pursuing careers in all areas of health care. BMSA upholds the ASU Charter by fostering academic excellence and connecting students with professionals through signature events like their Healthcare Panel and Annual BMSA Banquet.
During this session, BMSA members will speak to our youth about the challenges of pursuing careers in the medical field and share why they are passionate about becoming Black doctors. This is an incredible opportunity for our participants to learn from inspiring leaders and understand the importance of representation in healthcare.
