When he approached the end of his four years as a student Brandon Bellen from the University of Colorado School of Medicine thinks of the clinical goals that he has set for himself. One of them was to learn “to process grief after the death of a patient”. When this day finally arrived, he says: “I would lie if I said I was prepared.”

Bellen, which is waiting for the match day, when he and his classmates agree with a residency program, wrote about this experience in an open letter to students of the second study year, which occurs in clinical rotations. It was one of several notes that advice in a compilation of members of the Cu School of Medicine class from 2025.


Allison Broad-3-5-25

When Allison Broad started the balancing beam at the age of 3, the beginning marked that she finally became the gymnast of Division I. It was not until years later that it was recognized that it was also the beginning of her trip to medicine. Now as a medical student in the fourth year on The University of Colorado School of Medicine, it is preparing for its biggest leap so far: Match Day.

The Match Day is an annual event in which medical students across the country also learn the Residency program with which it matches it. This year when Broad opens her envelope to reveal where she was together, she hopes to see an emergency training program in a County Hospital in Denver or in the Bay Area.
