Meet Our Body & Soul Students and Alumni

• Kelly, Texas A&M College of Medicine, med student: I can honestly tell you that ACU has one of the best pre-medical programs out there, said Kelly. Throughout my undergrad years, ACU and Dr. Reeves guided the students step-by-step to success.  ACU helped me achieve my goals in other less tangible ways as well, says Kelly.  I cannot begin to name the many faculty and staff who consider part of their job description to nurture and encourage the students that they encounter each day.  Whether they invite them to their homes for dinner or take time to get to know their students by name, the faculty do so much more than teach their subject or work behind a desk.
  

• Tara, University of Houston College of Optometry,   Tara said, "ACU was perfect for me."  She had always wanted to go into Optometry. Tara goes on to say, "The science faculty definitely molded me in preparation for professional school." Most importantly, says Tara, "ACU and the faculty integrated my faith with science, which is why I continue to be amazed daily and have never regretted my decision to major in biology."
  

• Dr. Dale Funk M.D.: I have had many great experiences with the Body & Soul program, but my biggest joy comes in seeing the faces of amazement that you only see in persons seeing the inside world of medicine for the first time. It is truly the most fascinationg area of employment I can imagine, and certainly the most spiritually rewarding.

•    Jeffrey Edwards, University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio Medical School:                                                                    Jeffrey said,"Well, Ryan, Lauren, and I have been in school for two+ weeks now, and we have come to two conclusions:
  1.) There are no better prepared students than us, and
  2.) We miss ACU so much!

The three of us have been talking, and I know Chase would agree with us, but we owe so much to Dr. Reeves, Mrs. Powell, and the Body & Soul program. We would love to be able to share with the current Body & Soul students just how much we learned, as well as give them all the advice they need to hear to get ready for this great journey.
