Throughout the year, RUSH Medical college hosts events to help foster a culture of respect and celebrate a commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.
Undergraduate Medical Education
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service
January
Hosted annually by RUSH University, students, faculty and staff honor the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. with a day of service throughout the Chicago community.
The dedication our students, faculty and staff have for health equity goes beyond the classroom. In a long-standing tradition, Rush students and staff observed Martin Luther King Jr. Day with a day of service and participated in volunteer activities across the city of Chicago.
Graduate Medical Education
Virtual Showcase
September
The Graduate Medical Education (GME) virtual showcase is an excellent opportunity for prospective residents to learn about our diversity, equity, and inclusion mission from GME leaders and others at RUSH. The event is also an opportunity to learn more in depth about our residency programs, community engagement and facilities.
Diversity at RUSH: A Conversation with Residents

Do you have questions that were not answered during your virtual interview? GME hosts an annual Conversation with Residents to provide applicants an opportunity to further speak with current house staff across specialties in a resident-led Q&A program to discuss community service, wellness, health equity, life in Chicago and the House Staff Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee.
