Welcome back, Rush! Let me be one of the first to welcome the class of 2013! Make sure you guys register for the website as soon as your Rush email is working and don't forget to join the Class of 2013 group when you register. No worries if you forget though, since you can always join later.
Since we've added a bunch of great new features over the summer, I'm going to go ahead and do a brief tour that will introduce everyone to the exciting stuff now available on our website. RMstudents really has a lot to offer students in many areas of life at Rush. Read More »
We are having an issue with the current website in which attachments cannot be viewed. I don't have time to troubleshoot it now, but people have been asking for the Pharmacology quizzes. They have been temporarily uploaded here: http://rmstudents.com/files/pharm-quizzes.zip. To unzip the file, you need to download it, right click the file and choose something like "unzip" or "extract". If anyone needs other attachments to posts, please contact us using the contact form or email admin [at] rmstudents [dot] com.
Side note: We are currently looking for an M1 or M2 to take over management of RMstudents (the club). We manage this website, and we pioneered the M1 and M2 lecture recordings. My plan is to migrate this website from Drupal to Wordpress, which should make management and upkeep of this website a lot easier. If you are interested in computers, the web, technology, or education, please contact us! If you're scared that you don't know much/anything about managing a website, please contact us and find out more. We'd also love to get some new ideas of what can be done with this website and how it can better serve the medical college. We have some ideas of our own if you need help getting started. We look forward to hearing from you, and we desperately need someone to take over by the Spring. We'd hate to see this organization and it's website die after nearly 10 years of bringing technology to medical education at Rush.

This page is a placeholder. It will demonstrate how to send out emails to all members of your group.
I wanted to make sure you're able to access this and run it on your programs (iCal, Outlook, Windows Calendar) so I'm including a url to the calendar here: http://www.rmstudents.com/files/2011_spring08.ics
Note : If you want the calendar to update automatically in Outlook 2007 (or older versions of Outlook), please click on THIS link: webcal://www.rmstudents.com/files/2011_spring08.ics
And here's a page which explains how to subscribe to calendars in iCal: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iCal/2.0/en/wr47.html
I wanted to mention the difference between creating a Page and a Story. For the most part, Pages are meant to be more static information [about your group] (for example what your group is about or background on a project you guys do every year). Stories should usually be about more dynamic material (for example, the dates of a project you're working on for this year, or news for your group, or something your classmates might find useful).

RMStudents is hosting the schedule/calendar for Class of 2011's Winter 2008 quarter. There was a similar calendar up for the Fall quarter. If any of you use Gmail or Outlook or iCal, this is a very easy and very helpful way to keep track of your classes.
Do not just click on the link, unless you plan on using Microsoft Outlook. If you want to use this with Google Calendar, follow the instructions below. If someone can e-mail me the instructions for iCal (all typed up) I can paste that into here for Mac users. Thanks. Read More »
Welcome to RMstudents.com. First and foremost, if you're looking for content from the old version of this site, it can be found in some form here: http://old.rmstudents.com . (I apologize for the somewhat broken pages. They're part of the moving process and we're working on resolving it) If you've got a question, comment, concern, or idea, let us know (admin {at} rmstudents {dot} com for unregistered users)! There will be much more information on how to start using this new site in the next few weeks. Enjoy and we hope to see you back!
Please leave comments!
Below are some issues and more thorough responses (when I don't have to think on my feet). Feel free to add comments, concerns or questions in the comments. I'll add to this if new issues come up. Read More »
For those of you who have registered with RMstudents, go to the Groups Directory and make sure that you've joined (subscribed to) your class group (e.g. Class of 2011). If there is a link in the "Subscribe" column next to your class, click on it to join your classmates. Otherwise you may miss out on material that other classmates post for you. Some of you have already done this when registering for an account, but most people didn't.
Joining a group on this website is actually pretty easy. Once you're logged in, simply head over the the Groups Directory, find the group(s) you'd like to join, and click "Join" on the far right. You'll be asked to confirm the action on the next page. There, that was easy, now wasn't it?
