est wishes for a happy and healthy year on behalf of the WVSOM Board of Governors. As we continue the momentum from our institution’s 50-year celebration in 2023, we look forward to maintaining the highest standards in meeting the health care needs of West Virginians. WVSOM welcomed 53 in-state students in its Class of 2027, honoring the school’s commitment to provide excellence in health care to our state’s residents. Additionally, we anticipate the launch of our first graduate degree program in fall 2024. The Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences program will begin under the leadership of Timothy Garrow, Ph.D. This program will increase admission opportunities to WVSOM for West Virginia residents. Our institution’s Annual Report demonstrates a continued pattern of financial stability. Because of increasing alumni support, ambitious fundraising efforts and all-time high research grants, WVSOM continues to fulfill its mission to educate students from diverse backgrounds as lifelong learners in osteopathic medicine and complementary healthrelated programs.
In summer 2023, I was inundated with songs from the Broadway musical Hamilton courtesy of my teenage daughter. The lyrics “Get your education; don’t forget from whence you came” seem applicable to WVSOM’s mission statement of cultivating lifelong learners.
May WVSOM’s administration, faculty, staff, alumni and Board of Governors members inspire present and future generations in lifelong learning and invest their gifts in the enrichment of the health and well-being of our communities. Professionally,
Randall Belt, D.O.
4 ANNUAL REPORT 2023 www.wvsom.edu
I take pride in the fact that, unlike many institutions of higher education, our annual report documents a positive performance in fiscal year 2022-23:
▶ WVSOM posted a positive end-of-year report and a ▶ ▶ ▶

riting my letter for the WVSOM Annual Report gives me time to reflect on our recent successes and future opportunities. We’re recruiting the next generation of osteopathic physicians, creating a student-centered curriculum and moving the institution forward in important areas such as research.
WVSOM receives about 5,000 student applicants for 200 class openings each year. Why such interest? Outcomes matter: The Class of 2023 had a perfect residency placement rate, reflecting the fact that our students are highly qualified and sought-after. This school develops outstanding medical students who serve their communities.
I’m excited about the planned enhancements to our curriculum for those students. WVSOM is creating a more learner-centered experience, addressing student wellness and fostering independent learning. We think caring for our students now will mean better medical care in the future.
The name for the new “Finding Health” curriculum, which incorporates wellness, nutrition, exercise, lifestyle and preventive medicine, is based on a famous quote by A.T. Still, D.O., the founder of osteopathic medicine: “To find health should be the object of the doctor. Anyone can find disease.” Looking back at the 2022-23 fiscal year, I see a time when WVSOM prepared for future success. The institution and I are very grateful for the support from our governor, Jim Justice, the West Virginia Legislature and our federal representatives to help WVSOM grow its research infrastructure.
financial operational gain over the previous year. The WVSOM Foundation posted a 7.31 percent increase from investments. The WVSOM Alumni Association awarded $15,000 in scholarships. WVSOM remains the state’s largest medical school, with an annual enrollment of more than 800 students.
is No. 1 in producing physicians who ▶ WVSOM practice in West Virginia, and 40 percent of the state’s physicians are WVSOM graduates.
WVSOM has the lowest tuition of West Virginia’s three
▶ medical schools.
The environment for higher education in our country, including schools of osteopathic medicine, is changing rapidly. WVSOM does not exist in a vacuum. We are challenged with staying informed, looking into the future and making decisions to ensure the school’s continued growth and success.
As president, one of my responsibilities is maintaining a senior leadership team at WVSOM that can meet the challenges and has the experience and knowledge to move us forward. Entering 2022-23, our senior executive team, coupled with the strong leadership and engagement of our Board of Governors, assures WVSOM will continue to offer the highest level of osteopathic medical education to our students and provide our state and nation with a generation of caring, highly competent physicians. WVSOM’s ongoing financial stability continues to be a high priority. We are fortunate to have had great stewards of our finances over the years. We will continue to focus on our financial health. It is imperative that WVSOM function as efficiently and effectively as possible, with all departments working together.
I’m proud that WVSOM stands positioned for expansion and continued success in meeting and exceeding the vision of its founders. Best regards,

NEW ELECTIVE COURSE EXERCISE IS MEDICINE In 2022, WVSOM was recognized for its efforts to create a campus culture of wellness with a silver designation by Exercise is Medicine On Campus, a program of the American College of Sports Medicine and the American Medical Association. In 2023, WVSOM became the only osteopathic medical school to attain a gold designation — the highest status the program offers. Campuses with a silver designation engage students, faculty and staff in education initiatives and make movement part of the daily campus culture, while campuses that attain gold status incorporate physical activity vital signs, or PAVS, within the campus health system, among other requirements. Because the program proved popular with students, WVSOM began offering an Exercise is Medicine elective to first- and second-year students in January and February of the 2022-23 academic year, with 28 students participating in the initial course. The school is offering the course again in the 2023-24 academic year.
2023 GOLD CAMPUS
GME/MSOPTI WVSOM's Office of Graduate Medical Education (GME) supports and counsels students and graduates as they plan residency and fellowship training opportunities. Mountain State Osteopathic Postdoctoral Training Institutions (MSOPTI) transitioned from an academic sponsor to an educational consortium of training institutions. These institutions are available to WVSOM students for rotations and a variety of residency training locations in and near West Virginia.

COMMUNITY SERVICE
WVSOM believes that a commitment to helping others is integral to the education of future osteopathic physicians. The school works hard to foster in its students an eagerness to give back to people in the local area as well as communities in need around the world. It does so through a variety of programs, from smaller, year-round local fundraising events and donation drives to participation in national initiatives. Two examples of community service efforts at WVSOM are the Translating Osteopathic Understanding into Community Health (T.O.U.C.H.) program and the annual Day of Service event.
