“We are thrilled to welcome the enthusiasm that Drs. Franks and Mays bring to our medical alumni board,” said Linda S.

The Marshall University Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine Alumni Association helps connect and engage medical alumni from across the country with events and activities. The association is not a dues-based organization, but rather encourages alumni to direct those resources toward medical student scholarships.
Franks and Mays were each elected to serve a four-year term with the board of directors, effective July 1.
