	Brown Medical School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		What makes the Brown Medical School unique is that the majority of its students enter through a program called the Program in Liberal Medical Education (PLME).
		Prospective students apply to this eight-year program, considered one of the most selective programs of any university in the nation, before they begin their undergraduate education.
		On the other hand, the lack of an MCAT score requirement or other normal medical school application procedures makes the average figures low in comparison to competing medical schools (the Ivy League and other high-caliber institutions), creating debate about how reliable those statistics are for defining educational quality.

	Liberal Arts and Liberal Education by Christopher Flannery (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Doctors, nurses, psychologists, educators, scientists, engineers, accountants, lawyers, and the whole array of other highly skilled and "nominally civilized" men and women, were devoting their considerable skills, acquired at great effort and expense, to the extermination of a people.
		And the first task of the liberal arts is to secure the liberation of the mind from those many fetters that can bind it: notably ignorance, prejudice, and the influence of the passions.
		Education oriented to the highest good is replaced by education in the service of the lowest common denominator—avoidance of death or preservation of life and physical comfort.

		Unlike other medical schools, which either own their teaching hospitals or employ the faculty who work there, Brown is in the awkward position of recruiting faculty who then get paid by a hospital, not the university.

	The Daily Northwestern {01.31.2002} (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		As one of 55 freshmen in Northwestern's Honors Program in Medical Education, Kang is guaranteed admission to the NU Medical School after completing three years of undergraduate work at NU — three years that won't include preparation for the MCAT or the stress of maintaining the perfect grades coveted by medical school admissions committees.
		Competition for admission to the program is fierce, and students considered for the program are interviewed by both an NU faculty member and a medical student before being admitted to the program.
		And according to Kang and others HPME students, this intrinsic devotion to the medical profession at a young age is what drives HPME students to finish both their undergraduate and medical educations in only seven years.
