#XULA the nation’s only Black and Catholic institution, has joined forces with LCMC Health to address healthcare disparities and cultivate a more diverse and inclusive future medical landscape. The impacts of the partnership between Xavier and LCMC Health are already bearing fruit in the lives of four current Xavierites: Brayanna “Sunshine” Jones, a senior biology pre-med major; Senior Jaela Drumgole, a chemistry major; Jazmine Fernandez, a junior studying biology pre-med; and Karleigh Landry, another junior studying biology pre-med. As part of the Pioneering Programs for Progress initiative, eight graduates of Xavier were recipients of the LCMC Health Medical Pathways Fellowship. These Xavier alums are attending or entering medical school at a Louisiana-based institution and/or have expressed their intent to practice medicine in the state. Xavier University, a beacon of Historically Black College and University (HBCU) excellence, and LCMC Health, an extraordinary nonprofit healthcare system, have created a Unity of Excellence by coming together in this partnership dedicated to dismantling barriers, elevating education, and redefining possibilities for current, past and future Xavierites, as well as for the New Orleans community and beyond.
