Celebrating the art of medicine

Written by Rebecca Budde, SIU School of Medicine
Medicine can sustain life, but the arts make life worth living.SCOPE COVER 2016
SCOPE is the annual literary arts magazine of SIU School of Medicine. It reflects the ideology of SIU School of Medicine as a caring institution with creative, compassionate individuals. We’re training caring, thoughtful physicians who understand not just the physical needs of the patient, but also the emotional and spiritual components of a healthy life.
This year’s magazine features more than 40 short stories, poems and artwork submitted by students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends of the School.
First published in 1994, SCOPE is produced each year by an ever-changing group of medical students who volunteer to coordinate the magazine. With dozens of entries submitted every year in poetry, prose and artwork, SCOPE exemplifies the artistic and creative energy of the SIU School of Medicine community.
