COM Student of the Month – Brad Hertzler, 4th-year student
Editor’s Note: Each month, InterCOM will highlight a “Student of the Month” from the College of Medicine.

The goal is to recognize students for what they are doing and to encourage other students to get involved in the community. After all, medical school should be much more than studying.
