Give Back & Get Involved
Thank You Alumni of LSU Health Shreveport!
You can contribute to your alma mater through various initiatives. See below sponsorship opportunities and ways to give directly to your program and their scholarship campaigns.
Physician Assistant (PA) Alumni
The program kicked off a 25th Anniversary Scholarship campaign to assist in recruiting top candidates to become future PA alumni of LSU Health Shreveport. As part of the 25th Anniversary Campaign, alumni can sponsor the short white coat for first-year PA students. Sponsoring affords you the opportunity to write a note of encouragement to the student and place it in the pocket of the white coat. Last year we had twenty-eight PA alumni join us for the cloaking ceremony. We look forward to growing this event yearly. For more information, contact the program at (318) 813-2920.
The Joe McCulloch Endowment for Educational Excellence
A contribution to the McCulloch Endowment ensures we can continue to honor the legacy of the former Dean of the School of Allied Health Professions, Dr. Joe McCulloch. This endowment will support educational initiatives that impact all of our students.
Speech-Language Pathology Alumni
Each year, the Mollie Webb Speech & Hearing Center and Communication Disorders program hosts a continuing medical education (CME) event for alumni. Not only is the event beneficial to you professionally, but the event also gifts time with your former classmates and other SLP Alumni. To learn more, call (318) 813-4200.
