General SGA meeting- Tuesday, October 19, 12:15pm
-Save the date! We will be discussing current issues and upcoming events. This will be a
mandatory meeting for Senators, Committee chairs, and Club leaders, although everyone is
encouraged to attend!
TOUROCOM Cafeteria Vendor Meeting- Friday, October 15, 12:00 (today!)
-The caterer will be meeting with us in the cafeteria today. Please stop by if you have any
comments/suggestions/questions for him. Please note that this caterer is not affiliated with
TouroCOM. It is an independent Kosher caterer and therefore the school has no control over
the prices.
Syllabus- Class of 2013
-We are working on getting our syllabus clarified. As it stands now, there is no clear consensus
on how each class is calculating grades and we do not want to be surprised at the end of the
semester. We will be sending out an email shortly with a copy of the new syllabus once it is
available.
Kaplan
-Hopefully all of you have accessed your Kaplan accounts by now. In your account, you should
have the COMPLEX Qbank, COMPLEX Live Prep and USMLE Step 1 Webprep available. If
anyone has any problems and/or has not received the registration email from Kaplan, please let
us know as soon as possible.
Library Exam Viewing
-We have been pushing for more convenient exam viewing hours. These are the new hours as
it stands now. Please let us know your thoughts on this.
Monday-Thursday: 12-1 pm, 4-5pm
Friday: 12-2pm
Lippincott Online Book Trial
If you want to access your textbooks online, and are willing to give feedback about it, fill out
the link. We will be dividing up the offer (we have room for ~30) so that we have some people
from each class. Your feedback will be given to Lippincott in exchange for the free access, and
will influence students' decisions next year.

TouroCOM Website FAQs
-We want our school website to have a section for FAQs that students have annually. We
would like this to include the financial aid process, school policies, etc. We want your thoughts
on what helpful materials you would like to see added to it. Please list your ideas on the
Google Doc.

Facilities
-If you have complaints about the cleanliness of our facilities, please give us exact
documentation (like date and time) so that we can bring the issue up with our head of facilities.
Class Materials
-We are working with each of our professors and urging them to send out all of the class
material one week prior to the actual lecture. Look forward to some changes!
