4 AAMC’s COMPACT BETWEEN TEACHERS AND LEARNERS IN MEDICINE*
*, Adopted by FSU’s College of Medicine faculty in 2002

5 Commitments of Faculty
• We pledge our utmost effort to ensure that all components of the educational program for students are of high quality. • As mentors for our student colleagues, we maintain high professional standards in all of our interactions with patients, colleagues, and staff. • We respect all students as individuals, without regard to gender, race, national origin, religion, or sexual orientation; we will not tolerate anyone who manifests disrespect or who expresses biased attitudes towards any student or resident. • We pledge that students will have sufficient time to fulfill personal and family obligations, to enjoy recreational activities, and to obtain adequate rest; we monitor and, when necessary, reduce the time required to fulfill educational objectives, including time required for “call” on clinical rotations, to ensure students’ well being.

6 Commitments of Faculty (con’t)
• In nurturing both the intellectual and the personal development of students, we celebrate expressions of professional attitudes and behaviors, as well as achievement of academic excellence. • We do not tolerate any abuse or exploitation of students. • We encourage any student who experiences mistreatment or who witnesses unprofessional behavior to report the facts immediately to appropriate faculty or staff; we treat all such reports as confidential and do not tolerate reprisals or retaliations of any kind.

7 Examples of inappropriate behaviors are:
• Physical punishment or physical threats • Sexual harassment • Discrimination based on race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national or ethnic origin, age, disability • Repeated episodes of psychological punishment of a student by a particular superior (e.g. public humiliation, threats and intimidation, removal of privileges) • Grading used to punish a student rather than to evaluate objective performance • Assigning tasks for punishment rather than to evaluate objective performance • Requiring the performance of personal services • Taking credit for another individual’s work • Intentional neglect or intentional lack of communication. From: 2013/14 FSU COM Student Handbook

8 Does it happen here? Unfortunately the answer is YES! 30.4% of our second year students in 2016 reported at least one incident of mistreatment (compared to 24.2% nationally in the AAMC Medical School Year Two Questionnaire )
