Angelo State pre-health professions students in the Joint Admission Medical Program (JAMP) recently hosted dozens of campus and community departments and organizations for the 12 th annual JAMP Health Fair in the Houston Harte University Center.

The purpose of the fair is to increase ASU students’ awareness of available medical, counseling, fitness, wellness, disability, mental health and other healthcare-related services available on campus and in the community.

“The fair has grown every year, and this year we filled the University Center,” said Dr. Russell Wilke, co-director of JAMP. “It’s primary focus is educating all ASU students on the available services, but it also has many benefits for the JAMP students. They get to learn about the various healthcare-related careers available outside of just medicine, and they also gain important communication, time management and organizational skills as they coordinate all the different organizations and present the fair.”
