“KHOP has been one of the GREATEST parts of my bet36365体育 experience. We have a very tight-knit community that’s focused on helping each other. We have weekly meetings and multiple opportunities to visit hospitals and UNMC facilities. KHOP is an organization and experience that I would strongly recommend to any incoming student. You can tell that every KHOP student has a strong desire to succeed."
