House of Delegates 2023
What is the House of Delegates?
The House of Delegates (HOD) is an annual 1-2 day event that usually occurs in the fall for the Midwest delegates and the LMSA Midwest Board of Directors (BOD). HOD consists of:
(1) Leadership Development: Faculty and leaders from the Midwest region are invited to speak about leadership development, being URM in medicine, academic/ professional development, etc.
(2) LMSA Midwest Business Meeting: At the business meeting each Midwest chapter will provide a brief update on the successes/ challenges of the prior year. The BOD will provide updates on the region and may present resolutions that are to be voted on by the delegates.
Additional events such as socials/ mixers, residency panels, and service projects vary each year.
Who are the chapter delegates?
Delegates are the voting body of LMSA Midwest. Each LMSA chapter is required to choose 2 delegates who will represent the chapter during regional meetings/events.
Most often, the two chapter delegates are the president or vice president, however, some schools may have a delegate position.
