The tournament is among the events Morehouse School of Medicine is holding throughout the year to celebrate its 50th anniversary. MSM was founded in 1975 as a two-year basic medical sciences program at Morehouse College and became an independent institution in 1981, graduating its first four-year class in 1985. One of only four historically Black medical schools in the U.S., Morehouse School of Medicine is one of the leading educators of primary care physicians. In addition to its prestigious Doctor of Medicine degree, MSM currently offers 15 other degree programs in public health, biomedical sciences and physician assistant studies.
“I’m excited to join Morehouse School of Medicine at their upcoming golf tournament,” Ms. Stackhouse said. “MSM and I have a shared goal of opening doors to increased opportunities for opportunity-limited communities, something I work toward in the sport of golf and that MSM is focused on in medical and health sciences education.”
