Honoring the Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine on its Fiftieth Anniversary.

This is a ceremonial resolution (SR 246), not a law with policy changes. It honors the Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine (OU HCOM) for its 50th anniversary. The resolution recognizes OU HCOM's role as Ohio's only osteopathic medical school, its expansion to multiple campuses, its graduation of over 5,000 physicians (60% remaining in Ohio to practice), and its status as the state's largest producer of primary care physicians. The Senate formally commends the college and transmits a copy of the resolution to the institution.
