This episode addresses the July Secretariat call about LCME Standard Eight, dealing with medical school curriculum. All final decisions must be made by the schools curriculum committee, even though discussions may take place in multiple venues and with multiple groups involved in curriculum development. The chair of the curriculum committee is a pivotal role in this process. Phase reviews, curriculum reviews and other reports are also an important part of this decision-making process. Medical student feedback related to standard 8.5 was also addressed, encouraging (though not requiring) schools to have policies and processes regarding the collection and use of student feedback.
