ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½H history

ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ was created on March 27, 1997, when the constituency of Adventist Health System, Loma Linda met and voted to change its name to Loma Linda University Adventist Health Sciences Center.

The constituency also voted to change the bylaws making ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½AHSC (pronounced "lew-ask") the corporate member for Loma Linda University, as well as Loma Linda University Medical Center. On March 30, 1997, the Loma Linda University constituency met to change the bylaws of the University to reflect the new corporate membership relationship with ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½AHSC
