Res. 1004, which congratulates the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine for its the 150 years of commitment to advancing science and health through educating students and supporting significant research in the medical field. The Feinberg School of Medicine started their first classes in 1859, and is now one of 11 colleges at Northwestern University. Feinberg School of Medicine enrolls over 4,130 students; 1,600 full-time, 200 part-time, and 284 research students, and has established itself as one of the most premier medical schools in the Midwest. Much has changed at Feinberg School of Medicine over its 150-year history, but the core principles have remained constant. The school still strives to empower its students to make a difference and use their education to positively impact the world around them. As one example, Feinberg's free community health outpatient medical clinic, located on the west side of Chicago, provides medical care to low- income patients, while offers Feinberg students a practical environment in which to learn from one another and attending physicians. Through the clinic's interactive learning style and commitment to public service, the community health clinic gives students a taste of clinical medicine and prepares students to be successful by giving them practical, firsthand experience in the field of medicine.…”
