The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine is receiving national attention after becoming the latest institution featured on The College Tour, a streaming series that showcases colleges and universities through the experiences of their students.
LECOM celebrated the milestone Friday with a premiere watch party on campus, giving prospective students visiting the school an exclusive first look at the new episode. The event ran from 3 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. and welcomed students, faculty, staff, and guests eager to see the college highlighted on a national platform.
Several LECOM students who appear in the episode attended the watch party, sharing their experiences and reflecting on what it was like to represent the institution in front of a nationwide audience.
The event also featured a virtual appearance from The College Tour producer Alex Boylan, who joined attendees via Zoom to discuss the production and the show’s mission of helping prospective students learn about colleges directly from those who attend them.
The episode highlights campus life, academic opportunities, and student experiences at LECOM, offering viewers an inside look at one of the nation’s leading medical education institutions.
For those who missed the premiere event, the episode will be released to the public on October 19 through The College Tour website. It is also scheduled to begin streaming on Amazon Prime Video on December 1, expanding its reach to audiences across the country.
College officials say the feature provides a unique opportunity to showcase LECOM’s programs and campus community while helping future students explore what the school has to offer.
