Members can choose to be just an LHS member or fill out the UGA application and be a part of the college chapter as well. Members who fill out the UGA application are invited to all UGA club events and receive a certificate from UGA detailing all of the credits they have earned throughout the year.  This includes social events which is a great way to explore the UGA campus and build relationships with current college students. Furthermore, this club provides multiple guest speakers throughout the year, which result in shadowing credits put on your certificate, fundraising events, volunteering opportunities, and other fun events. This year we have had many guest speakers including an Emergency Medicine Specialist, Speech Pathologist, Dialysis nurse, Professeur of Internal medicine, Pediatric Physical Therapist, and more. Other involvements this year include a Thanksgiving Card drive for Northeast Georgia Medical Professionals, A supplies drive for our school nurse Mrs. Surio, Tutoring for International Rescue Committee, and involvement with Medshare.
