So how does someone at Brown typically pronounce PLME?
Pull-me? Pill-me? Pell-me? Plih-me? Ply-me? Plummy? Say each of the letters individually?
My brain has been pronouncing it different ways ever since I started seeing it, but I’m wondering if there is an on-campus standard way of saying it.
PLEA ME
Huh. That’s the one pronunciation that didn’t occur to me. Interesting.
Yep, PLEE-ME is the standard way that people pronounce it.
So standard in fact that I think people would legit look at you funny if you pronounced it any other way.
And it means?
Program in Liberal Medical Education. It’s what Brown calls its combined 8-year baccalaureate/MD program
