The AMSA premedical chapter at CWRU is based off of American Medical Student Association, the nation's largest medical group that seeks to address concerns within the medical field and utilize the skills of physicians-in-training. We want to provide premed students at Case Western Reserve University with the opportunity to explore the many facets of medicine. It's imperative that we create activities and programs that are innovative, such as our proposed premed rotation/shadowing program where participating students would experience a specialty by shadowing a physician, then moving onto another area of medicine and shadow a different doctor. However, we don't stop offering more traditional events, such as the MCAT clinic or Med School Panel, because a student needs to be well informed for his or her potential career path.

Membership Benefits
As a member of AMSA, you have access to unique programs and valuable services to help you through your medical education journey. We partner with a wide range of companies to give our members useful discounts on everything from test prep to international volunteer opportunities.

USG - Activism

Website

Mission
Our group's mission/purpose is to foster discussion and debate about global health and health policy, and to engage students in debate to develop policy, communication, diplomacy, and team-building skills through simulations of the World Health Assembly and other events.

Membership Benefits
AMWHO will give experience in global health and health policy through programs modeled after WHO proceedings. Members participate in crisis-response simulations and policy negotiations where they draft resolutions, argue stakeholder positions, and make decisions using basic epidemiology, ethics, and resource-allocation constraints. We also plan on holding workshops on policy writing, diplomatic negotiation, public speaking, and interpreting health data to build practical skills.
Members can join semester-long “policy labs” in small teams to research specific, under-addressed topics and produce concise policy briefs for review by peers and faculty or clinician mentors. The organization hosts guest speakers (public health researchers, physicians, NGO and government professionals) focused on real decision workflows.
To stand out, we will run “Public Health Briefing Studio” where members learn risk communication and deliver evidence-based briefings on current outbreaks or policy changes. Each cycle includes a guest speaker, such as an epidemiologist, health communicator, or policy analyst, who breaks down how briefings are built in real settings (what evidence is trusted, how uncertainty is stated, how messages are tailored to the public), then gives targeted critique on clarity, accuracy, and tone. The club also offers rapid “data-to-policy” sprints using public datasets to build one-page memos. We will send regular briefings summarizing WHO updates, major global health developments, and opportunities, and supports conference participation, leadership roles, and cross-campus collaborations.

In the intense academic environment which is Case Western Reserve University (CWRU), it is easy to forget that fun is an important part of a balanced life. The aim of the Big Games Club (BGC) is to provide opportunities for players to have fun on a college campus that they would not otherwise be able to experience. These games will permit participants to create new friendships by interacting and forming connections in a fun, non-academic setting.

Humans vs. Zombies is a CWRU's premier zombie apocalypse Simulation. It is a campus-wide game and a campus tradition that encourages the players to look at their everyday lives in a new, fun way. Hosted every semester (once in October and once in March), HvZ is a 10-day-long recreation of our very own zombie apocalypse. Grab some socks and some ramen, and see how long you can survive. Or stalk campus searching for the delicious brains of unsuspecting humans. Missions, held every other night, promote intense gameplay as large groups of humans and zombies try to complete an objective.

Our Small Games Committee also holds smaller, one off events. Ever wanted to take over a university building to play Hide and Sees and Murder Mystery? Or maybe you're a big fan of Laser Tag? Well we've got you covered! SGC holds several events each semester, from snowball fights, to jackbox nights, to some special events of our own devising!

Finally, the Scavenger Hunt Committee puts together several puzzle solving events. Our biggest event, CWRUQuest, will have players running around campus, completing mini tasks for points, prizes, and glory! We also host escape rooms, as well as some other various puzzly events!

Membership Benefits
Meet people, make friends, and have a chance to forget about classes for a while and just have fun!
