The Rhetoric of Health and Medicine Symposium brings together researchers, teachers, and students interested in the intersection between language and medicine. The 2023 RHM Symposium was hosted at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities campus and brought together 75 attendees from across the country, many of whom were UMN graduate students, faculty, or alumni.

Past Events

Dancers had such a fun time with the hip hop section that they even asked if we could go later than the schedule so they could keep learning more!

Alumni attended from the first year in 1996 through to the most recent year in 2023.

We had a high-caliber slate of speakers that left our attendees inspired and re-energized to tackle their work as communicators.

Attendees of the fair were able to connect with 62 community partners and campus resources to learn more about ways get involved in the community through volunteer and internship opportunities in a wide variety of issue areas.

The focus of the week is to highlight the great customer service that the 2,000+ Auxiliary Services employees provide throughout the year.
