The JMP is a wonderful program with incredible students and committed faculty & administrators. I wish my medical school experience were more like it, and it is serving as a model for other medical schools.

As a retired JMP staff person, I can say unequivocally that this wonderful program contributes much more value to the people of California than it costs. Furthermore, since Cal heavily subsidizes the athletic department, surely as a premier institution it can support a highly acclaimed academic enterprise such as the JMP. And finally, really Cal? Really you can't find a mere $500k? That's just cutting 3 of the supernumerary administrators you have recently hired!

This is a gem of a program that is unique in developing well-rounded and caring physicians. Please do not be short-sighted and cut this program.

I took pharmacology in the JMP in 1992 or 93. The program was incredible! Every student I met in the program was inspiring and innovative.

Certainly there are other ways to close the budget, rather than attacking this worthwhile program.

The JMP provides a unique opportunity for non-medical graduate students at UC Berkeley to work closely and collaborate with medically-minded health professionals.

This community-based institution has produced stellar physicians over the years and must continue as an incubator for future well-rounded, compassionate doctors.

The JMP is an unmatched program that does not deserve to be cut. As a current MPH student at UC Berkeley, I have met many JMP students--they are incredibly kind, helpful, and humble people that will make great doctors. Moreover, I hope to apply to the program--I would hate to see it cut before then!

At a time when we need more doctors to help more people, we need to keep programs like this alive.

We must continue to fund programs that will contribute to improving the care of the undeserved and disadvantaged. Removing funding from programs such as these further worsen the mission to training leaders that commit to reducing health care disparities.

I am an alumnus of the JMP, working in the safety net. The JMP has produced hundreds of people like me - exceedingly well trained but fiercely loyal to our egalitarian view of health care. Losing the JMP would cast a long shadow on the medical response to health inequality.

Having served as preceptor for several JMP students doing their 3rd year clerkship I can vouch about how fabulous a program this is. It would be a shame to lose it
