Posted By: HBCU CONNECT on June 07, 2022 Check out this video from Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia! This ceremony, born of the writer’s love for liturgy and ritual as a vehicle of cohesion and celebration of common ideas and principles, was first presented to the Morehouse School of Medicine 3rd year Internal Medicine students in 2006 who thought the idea of celebrating our commitment to compassionate caring was great and should be implemented. Marvin L. Crawford, M.D., M.Div., FACP, Internal Medicine Clerkship Director wrote the ceremony and placed it aside until 2011, when Walkitra Alexander, a graduating senior student, bemoaned that she will not be finishing with her class, but would love to have something to commemorate the year. The ceremony was presented as an alternative and the now Dr. Smith with the guidance of Mrs. Kersni Stewart coordinated the first celebration. It was an appropriate time for Morehouse School of Medicine to kick off an event that celebrated compassion since the school had been cited by the New York England Journal of Medicine as being the most socially conscious medical school in America. Since May of 2011, the ceremony has taken on a life of its own with the hope for expansion to other socially conscious medical schools who want to celebrate the compassionate physician.
