Medical Students Receive Matthew Terry Scholarships

On Apr. 4, first-year medical student Sharien Amarnani and second-year medical student Lauren Westafer were the recipients of the NSU College of Osteopathic Medicine (COM) Dr. Matthew A. Terry Scholarship Endowment. The academic accolade, which is accompanied by a $500 cash award, was established in 1999 to honor first-and second-year medical students who epitomize virtues such as scholastic excellence, service to the school, empathy, and congeniality. The Dr. Matthew A. Terry Scholarship Endowment, which was the brainchild of the Department of Family Medicine, serves as a fitting tribute to COM students who embody the true spirit of an osteopathic practitioner.
