Caribbean showdown.
A Caribbean medical school's proposal to bring its third- and fourth-year students to Texas for clinical training is drawing fire from the state's medical schools, some influential state lawmakers, and the Texas Medical Association. Earlier this year, the American University of the Caribbean (AUC) applied to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board for a certificate of authority to grant medical degrees in Texas. If approved, AUC could contract with Texas hospitals and other health care facilities to provide clinical training for third- and fourth-year students from the school.
