Student feedback is critical to the continued growth of the University and its future students. Student feedback about the quality of instruction at SGU helps to improve the education of future medical professionals. It is the professional responsibility of all students to complete evaluations for each course and clerkship. Students who fail to participate in the evaluation process are considered non-compliant and unprofessional and may be subject to disciplinary action.
Any student with issues or concerns relating to their academic program in Terms 1-5 should bring them to the attention of a representative from the Student Government Association (SGA). The usual route for such issues is to then bring them to the attention of the relevant SOM committee (Student Academic Affairs Committee, Curriculum Committee, Non-academic Affairs Committee, etc.). The SGA may then bring the issue to the Senior Associate Dean of Basic Sciences Office. This route ensures that issues impacting the class are efficiently dealt with in a timely manner.
The Senior Associate Dean of Basic Sciences’ office meets regularly with students during the term at “Meet the Deans” sessions, and with the SGA representatives for each term.
