School of Medicine Inaugurates Student Lounge

The new Student Lounge was inaugurated on March 23rd by Dr. Walter Frontera - Dean of Medicine, Dr. José R. Carlo - RCM Chancellor, Juan C. Almodóvar, President of the Medical Student Council, and representatives of students, faculty and alumni.

This new space is located on the third floor of the Medical Sciences Campus Building, adjacent to the medicine amphitheaters. With a colorful and modern decor, convenient lighting and new lockers, it is a great place to study and meet with classmates, enjoy a snack or lounge around between classes. The room features comfortable couches to relax on, as well as tables and chairs to sit around and study, chat or have lunch. A cozy kitchen and a spacious meeting room is part of this new facility that promises to become a favorite gathering spot for students.

The opening of this lounge was made possible by the efforts of many groups working together. Contributions from alumni and private corporations such as Triple S were crucial in this project. The School wishes to specifically thank the Sociedad de Médicos Graduados UPR and a group of Alumni donors, some of them contributed every year since our first campaign in 2005.

Enjoy!
