New Website and Feedback Form for Medical School Evaluation Process

Dear Colleagues,

We are happy to share with you the Envisioning the Future of Academic Medicine website.

The website is a central hub to share information and updates about the medical school evaluation process.

Components include:

• Process details
• Evaluation timeline
• Committee information
• University Senate questions
• Prior communications

There is also an opportunity for our medical school communities to submit feedback on specific University Senate questions. This feedback form is managed by ECG Management Consultants, a national consulting firm with expertise in academic health centers, and responses may be submitted anonymously. The responses will be shared with the appropriate committees.

The three committees have each met and are in the process of developing responses. The goal is for the committees to provide their preliminary advisory reports in December, to be integrated with feedback from our internal and external constituencies and presented to the University Senate in January. Your input is important to us and is essential for a transparent, collaborative process.

Please continue to check the website for updates on the evaluation process, and we will also be sharing progress with you in the weeks to come.

Sincerely, 

Robert L. Johnson, MD, FAAP
