Richmond, VA; December 10, 2024 – Today, Do No Harm released a new report exposing the role of the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) in politicizing the nation’s medical schools.

The report, titled, “Activism Over Meritocracy: How the Association of American Medical Colleges is Corrupting Medical Education with Endless DEI Ideology,” is broken into the three parts:

  • Part One outlines how the AAMC pressures medical schools and residency programs to impose DEI ideology on students and applicants.
  • Part Two reveals how the AAMC engages in expensive lobbying efforts and political activism to advance its agenda.
  • Part Three proposes strategies for countering the well-entrenched DEI agenda that the AAMC has inflicted upon the American medical education system.

“The AAMC corrupts medical education by blatantly embedding DEI into American medical schools,” said Dr. Jared Ross, Senior Fellow at Do No Harm. “Our report offers practical solutions to restore excellence in the medical school curriculum. The medical education system in this country should be focused on science-based teachings rather than forcing students to engage with a radical political ideology.”
