The Ross Medical Education Center campus in <a href=\"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/campus\/wv\/morgantown.php\">Morgantown<\/a> is no exception. They also have already been very busy this summer. They started the warm weather off with a cookout that they opened up to the community as an open house. In the weeks leading up to the event, they advertised to the area on the radio. In addition to enjoying delicious food, visitors were invited to chat with staff, faculty, and students and take tours of the campus. The radio station even showed up at the campus on the day of the event to cover it and enjoy the fun day at the campus!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Ross-Medical-Education-Center-Morgantown-EMS-Visit.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Ross-Medical-Education-Center-Morgantown-EMS-Visit-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Ross Medical Education Center Morgantown EMS Visit\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-18397\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Ross-Medical-Education-Center-Morgantown-EMS-Visit-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Ross-Medical-Education-Center-Morgantown-EMS-Visit-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Ross-Medical-Education-Center-Morgantown-EMS-Visit-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Ross-Medical-Education-Center-Morgantown-EMS-Visit.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Shortly after their cookout the campus held a food drive to benefit the food pantry at local <a href=\"http:\/\/www.srsh.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Scott\u2019s Run Settlement House<\/a>.
