	September 6, 2022 at 4:23 PM	Approved	September Meeting	SAOAO	09/06/2022	09/28/2022	This will be the monthly meeting for the SAOAO. This meeting will be focused around what is expected of medical students while they are rotating in orthopedics. I will have Dr. Bryan Anderson talking to the group about what he believes is important for medical students to know and do when they are on an orthopedic rotation to really stand out and make good impressions. Dr. Anderson is the Chief Resident under Dr. Tuck and has also given several of the MSK system lectures so his input is seen as being invaluable on what a resident is looking for a medical student to do to make a good impression during an orthopedic rotation. This is planned to be an in person meeting at Bethel Church at 6pm on 9/28/22. If this location is not available then this meeting will move to zoom at the same time and date COVID-19 Risk Control: While this is going to be held indoors the students will be asked to wear masks and there will be 4 people per table to insure that there is enough space between each student to minimize the risk.
	March 30, 2022 at 4:09 PM	Rejected	Ukraine Strong	Womens Health Club	03/30/2022	04/30/2022	This will be our third event of the semester. In an effort to support the people of Ukraine, the WHC e-board members will lead a workout for LECOM students at the Wellness Center parking lot on Saturday, April 30th at 11am. The event will be advertised as "Ukraine Strong". WHC board members will coordinate a body-pump exercise circuit to music, and lead participants through the workout for 45 minutes. Each participant will be asked to donate $10, and all proceeds will be given to 'Doctor's Without Boarders' in LECOM's name. This organization provides medical relief and responds quickly to crises around the globe, currently including Ukraine, Haiti, and Yemen. Although they cannot earmark donations for a specific location, we can choose to earmark ours for "Emergency Relief", helping those in dire need. A spreadsheet will be sent to the student body to 'sign up' for the event so we account for how many people will be attending. Money will be collected via cash on the day of the event. We think this will be a great way for WHC to bring together the LECOM community for a healthy study break and to support the health of women and children around the globe.

	September 26, 2022 at 1:52 PM	Approved	Decompression Session: Painting and a Discussion on Barriers to Mental Health Care	Mental Health Task Force	09/26/2022	10/27/2022	This will be a painting session with a discussion on barriers to mental health care hosted by the SGA Mental Health Task Force that seeks to act as a place to decompress and engage in a hobby as stress relief practice, as well as a space to discuss mental health in medical students. Dr. Melanie Dunbar will be present for the duration of the meeting as a facilitator along with the members of the mental health task force. We know that medical students are more likely to live with depression, anxiety, and mood disorders (Maser et al., 2019), and that having discussions about our experiences works to destigmatize and reduce stress around seeking treatment (Hankier et al., 2014). An additional reason to have the coinciding painting session will give students a physical activity to focus on to make students feel more comfortable contributing to the discussion and sitting through silent periods. We will discuss different barriers that one might encounter to seeking mental health care, including cultural, geographical, financial, and other societal barriers. We will discuss stigma around mental health illness and treatments, including medications, and ways we can work to break down those stigmas. This will not be a therapy session, it will be a discussion on the difficulties medical students face and the associated stigma and barriers to mental health care. It will also be a place to remind students of the resources and support that they have available to them. This session will be held October 27th at 6pm in the Vora lounge. An RSVP form will be created to determine how many materials to purchase for the event. Materials will be purchased in bulk off Amazon, and unused materials will be saved for a future Goody bag event. Plastic tablecloths will be purchased to protect the tables, the paint will be washable for easy removal, and cleaning materials will be purchased to ensure that the lounge is left spotless after our session. Cleaning up will be done by the members of the Mental Health Task Force, and leftover materials will be added to SGA storage for continued use. “Relative to the general population of postsecondary graduates aged 20–34, medical students aged 20–34 had significantly higher rates of diagnosed mood disorders, diagnosed anxiety disorders, suicidal ideation, and psychological distress.” Maser, Brandon MD; Danilewitz, Marlon MD; Guérin, Eva PhD; Findlay, Leanne PhD; Frank, Erica MD, MPH.

	March 23, 2022 at 12:10 PM	Rejected	Weight Stigma and Mental Health	Mental Health Task Force	03/23/2022	04/13/2021	This will be a MHTF-guided discussion on the impact of weight stigma on mental health and health outcomes. We will discuss how weight stigma in medicine has affected our relationship with medical practitioners and could affect our future patients. Using examples from medical and public health literature, we’ll examine our view of obesity as an epidemic and as a measure of mortality risk, and how that has influenced medical perspectives on weight. We will also discuss the genetic and socioeconomic components of weight, and how those might be barriers to thinness. Finally, we will also brainstorm together how we, as future physicians, can help address weight stigma in our practice, such as asking permission to discuss weight and trusting patients to know their own bodies. Those who participate actively will get a $10 gift card, as this event will be in lieu of the monthly breakfast.
