-ERAS update: September 16th is officially considered the first day. Inform students that you should certify your list before the last day, as ERAS has crashed before. The working theory is that the crash is related to the early opening of ERAS and a higher data load. Please complain to AAMC.
-Mistreatment presentation: needs more awareness of the policy and process. Room for improvement, and concerns about how to disseminate this to faculty and students.
-Student concerns: raise awareness for reporting possible breeches in duty hours in order to honor, about malicious student to student behavior (multiple avenues for this).
