Canadian Osteopathic Medical Students
The Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine investigated the possibility of opening an osteopathic medical school in Canada. The plans have been dropped, due to concerns about clinical training in a country with very few D.O.s and the large time investment required to open the school. The college has opened a program at its existing osteopathic school that will accept 25 students from Canada each year. As of 2011, about 20 U.S.-trained osteopathic physicians were practicing in Canada.
The Canadian Osteopathic Association recently started the Canadian Osteopathic Medical Student Organization.

Famous quotes containing the words canadian, medical and/or students:
“We’re definite in Nova Scotia—’bout things like ships ... and fish, the best in the world.”
—John Rhodes Sturdy, Canadian screenwriter. Richard Rossen. Joyce Cartwright (Ella Raines)
“They said I’d never get you back again.
I tell you what you’ll never really know:
all the medical hypothesis
that explained my brain will never be as true as these
struck leaves letting go.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“I know that I will always be expected to have extra insight into black texts—especially texts by black women. A working-class Jewish woman from Brooklyn could become an expert on Shakespeare or Baudelaire, my students seemed to believe, if she mastered the language, the texts, and the critical literature. But they would not grant that a middle-class white man could ever be a trusted authority on Toni Morrison.”
—Claire Oberon Garcia, African American scholar and educator. Chronicle of Higher Education, p. B2 (July 27, 1994)
