Dozens of incoming University of Michigan Medical School students walked out of a pro-life keynote speaker’s address, after a previous petition to get the speaker removed failed. (snip) The petition to remove Collier, who is also the director of the UMMS Program on Health Spirituality & Religion, was ultimately denied by the school’s dean, Dr. Marschall Runge. (snip) In his decision, he expressed the "critical importance of diversity of personal thought and ideas, which is foundational to academic freedom and excellence," according to the report. (snip) Dr. Collier made no mention of abortion, Roe v. Wade, or any political topic during her keynote speech.

Doctors in training DEDICATED to murder. If I were running that bunghole, I would dismiss, with prejudice, every one of the students who walked out. But we unfortunately no longer live in a world with consequences, so each one of these mentally defective units will become an MD. May God help their patients.

This ceremony was for incoming medical students. With an attitude like this, I doubt they’ll be able to finish the course.

Dozens walked out. (looks like they're mostly women)
Hundreds stayed.
One nice note: The U has required masking at all University buildings/events. I see many without masks. Maybe there's some return to sanity.
Also, the Dean supported the speaker;s right to have an opinion. Can't tell you how nice it is to hear this at the University of Michigan.

Expel them all. This is disgusting and proof that liberalism is pure evil.

It's distressing that support for the unborn is automatically viewed by these new "doctors" as nonsupport of women. The exact opposite is the case; but it just goes to show how effective the anti-life movement is--They've managed to make some believe that subsequent surgeries after miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies are "abortions" and are now illegal. So many ignorant people.

If they're so concerned about women's rights, what about the possible 50% females that they're killing?

Do I assume that the elderly will be the next victims?

Ah yes, the indoctrinated, the brain washed and the newly minted incoming class of communist scum. Pathetic.

I wonder how many of these woke physicians-in-training will be willing to perform abortions themselves. Talk (and walking out) is cheap.

Just as law students shouted and acted like petulant toddlers instead of trained professionals when a controversial speaker spoke, those first years should be dropped from the program for dishonoring the coating of future medical professionals. If they choose to be politicians, loose the coat and move on. Posers. Theirs is not to be opinionated purveyors of idealized science but practioners of Hippocrates. Shame on this school and board members if they take no action.. Spoken by a parent of recent white coated.

Wait until you see the little ribs clogging up your cannula, then call the speaker and apologize.
On your knees, "non sumus digmi."

I lived in Ann Arbor for eight years. This doesn’t surprise me at all. They’ve always been this way.

Let's see how these lefty medical students feel about pro life after they witness an abortion or even participate in performing an abortion. I suspect quite a few are going to change their minds. Having witnessed an abortion while working in the OR, what I saw will never fade away.

UMMS is trying to emulate the wokeness that abounds at West Point, Annapolis, and Colorado Springs - our service academies.

This is the reason why it's imperative that you know who it is that's treating you for whatever aliment you have. My father's PCM kept trying to convince him to get the "clot shot." He kept refusing and the doctor kept pushing. Finally my dad said that he had enough and dropped the bum. Such is the attitude of these future MD's and I feel sorry for their future patients.
