To the Federal Healthcare Student Community,
We are excited to announce the call for submissions for the 3d volume of Progress Notes, the first and only literary review by and for federal healthcare students. Progress Notes includes peer-reviewed fiction, reflective writing, poetry, and visual art from federally-sponsored healthcare students in a wide array of degree programs. The review aims to
provide a forum for students’ artistic expression as a way to support personal and professional growth. The 3d volume of Progress Notes will be produced in both print and online versions in Spring 2018. To check out our first and second volumes, access our website at: https://www.usuhs.edu/students/progress-notes-literary-review. Submission categories and deadline:
