Alpha Omega Alpha, AOA, is an honor medical society organized in 1902 at the University of Illinois. Membership is based on scholarships, leadership and other personal attributes. Its members are chosen from high-ranking students of the Junior and Senior classes.

The Aesculapian Society was established in the 1964-65 session under the auspices of the Student Council. The objective of this organization is to promote amicable interchange of opinion between the student body and the faculty, with a view to the constant improvement of educational, medical, and scientific standards.

The Gold Humanism Honor Society (GHHS) is a community of medical students, physicians, and other leaders who have been recognized for their compassionate care. GHHS reinforces and supports the human connection in healthcare, which is essential for the health of patients and clinicians.

The modern Medical Alumni Association began in 1985 with a series of organizational meetings that took place beginning in Baton Rouge and following in other locations. The first general meeting was held in June 1986, when Julius Mullins (‘36) was elected President and a set of by-laws was adopted.

Meetings of the Board of Directors are held throughout the year, outreach programs occur periodically, and a general membership meeting is held annually in June in connection with the annual reunions.

All alumni of LSU School of Medicine - New Orleans automatically receive Medicinews, the alumni news magazine, and the Honor Roll, a yearly publication.
