Where did UTMB’s ACS (Ambulatory and Community Medicine Selective) Go?



 ACS, a former graduation requirement for MS4s at UTMB has been suspended for the SOM through the 2019-2020 academic year. The UTMB Selective website http://ar.utmb.edu/BSHSselectives/BSHSbrochure.asp displays the 
Ambulatory Community Selectives” link that now reads, “Sorry ACS brochure is no longer available.”  Currently a MS4 clinical elective must be taken to substitute for it. We hope that ACS comes back soon, at least as an option in the electives category. Previous UTMB medical students, including those now in dermatology residency, enjoyed working with community dermatologists in their offices and learning more about dermatology practice in the community setting.
