General information

In 1996, a first-year medical student at the University of Tennessee, Memphis, founded a day on which all medical students would join to perform community service in Memphis. The following year, two students from the same class took a trip to Kazakhstan with a Memphis pediatric surgeon; they returned - moved and determined - to provide others with similar opportunities. Together, these and others from the Medical Student Executive Council sensed the growing need to organize public service on-campus. CIAO - the Council for International & Area Outreach - was founded in 1998 as a culmination of their collective efforts. CIAO is comprised of student representatives from each class in the College of Medicine along with faculty, administrators, and independent advisors.
