Journey of Faith: Amy (Schlosser) Yelton’s Unexpected Path from Montreat to Medical School

May 28, 2024

After completing her second year of medical school, Amy (Schlosser) Yelton (‘22) hasn’t been rewarded with much of a summer break. With her didactic or preclinical years in the rearview mirror, the 2022 graduate of Montreat College is ready to leave the classrooms of Liberty University College of Osteopathic Medicine and its weekly tests to begin clinicals starting on July 1.

First, however, two critical board exams loom on the immediate horizon. Up first is the COMLEX_USA Level 1 exam to test competency in foundational biomedical sciences. That test will be followed by Step 1 of the USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Examination), widely regarded as one of the toughest exams in the world. Passing the USMLE is mandatory for medical students seeking licensure to practice medicine in the United States. On top of those, Yelton has already passed the Advanced Cardiac Life Support and Basic Life Support exams for certification.

For Yelton, this intimidating lineup of exams is just the next step toward reaching her long-term goal of a career in osteopathic medicine.

“I really consider it a great privilege to be in medicine and be able to be a physician because it’s a calling that I thought about really long ago, and the Lord has really been faithful through all of that,” she said. “I had a deep care for people and an interest in humanity as a whole, and I knew that the Lord had given me certain gifts. I knew I wanted to do something that gave back to society, and I wasn’t afraid of working hard. I’m really excited to live out this journey that I’ve been on for so many years now.”

While she had long planned to be a doctor, her path to that goal took an unexpected turn in 2019 when she “had the random idea” to continue her running career in college. While growing up in Avon Park, Florida, Yelton admitted that attending school in North Carolina was not on her radar. However, that all changed when she learned about Montreat College from other athletes who were being recruited by Jose Larios, the Vice President of Athletics at Montreat College and a Florida native whose hometown was just 15 minutes north of Avon Park.

“I submitted my statistics one night on the website, and I got an offer the next day,” Yelton said. “It took a lot of dying to what I thought I wanted for my life and what I thought I needed for my life, quite frankly, but I convinced my parents to bring me to the Montreat Honors Scholars Day to see what kind of scholarships I could get on top of my running scholarships.”

By then, even seeing frost for the first time on her campus visit couldn’t dissuade the Floridian from choosing Montreat.

“The moment I got there, I knew this was where I was supposed to be,” she remembered. “It was beautiful. I had never been that close to mountains before, and I thought the buildings looked like Narnia. I spent three years there, and I absolutely loved it.”

By the time she arrived on campus, Yelton had two years of college credits under her belt. With that head start, she was able to earn a double major in biology and health sciences in just three years, all while participating in cross country and track.

“You need to not be afraid to make decisions that might not look like everybody else,” she shared, reflecting on her unique college experience. “I certainly was not as social as other people were in college because I just couldn’t be. I gave up a lot in college that a lot of people might go to college for, but I still had a wonderful experience and I still left with so many friends. That process just looked very different because I was trying to balance all of that.”

As a member of the honors program, Yelton found herself immersed in an educational journey that extended beyond her primary focus in science. Looking back on her time in the program, she recalled how those honors courses pushed her to explore subjects she had never fully appreciated and grow in ways she hadn’t anticipated.

“When I think back on it, those classes were some of the times that I grew the most outside my actual science education just because I was forced to think about a lot of things that I had never considered,” she said. “It was a look into a different world. To be given an opportunity to study those courses somewhere like Montreat was amazing.”

In addition to broadening her academic horizons, Montreat College impressed Yelton with its integration of faith and learning.

“I had been to public school my whole life and never really thought about bringing faith into education, even though I had been a Christian as long as I can remember,” she said. “Being able to get a liberal arts education while pursuing science was something that just blew my mind. I also loved the professors. The way they were able to have faith and confidence in the science they were teaching and put those things together was something I had never seen before.”

Yelton’s experience at Montreat College was also defined by an individualized education and a profound sense of belonging. That nurturing environment allowed her to thrive academically and personally.

“The ability to do research that I designed myself was really impactful not only for my resume for medical school but also just feeling like my thoughts and what I wanted to do mattered,” she recollected. “With the way the college and university sector of the United States in general is progressing, it’s becoming more and more important to go somewhere where you’re going to have an identity and be able to put down roots. Ultimately, people want to feel that they matter. Going to a small school like Montreat allows you to really get involved early, and you’re really going to be given space to become an adult. It’s not just an education. At that point, it becomes a change of your worldview.”

Another important experience Yelton had at Montreat College was being mentored by President Maurer as a Wilson Scholar. The Wilson Scholarship identifies future leaders and provides an opportunity for them to gain professional experience. That opportunity allowed her to develop valuable career skills and provided her with connections to the medical program at Liberty University where she is now.

“Being a Wilson’s Scholar has been invaluable in terms of getting me to where I am today,” she acknowledged. “Even just the administration work like the scheduling and the use of Excel and Outlook were very practical things that are still very beneficial to me.”

While at Montreat, Yelton also met her husband, Hank Yelton. On the same day that they graduated together, he proposed at the track on Montreat’s Black Mountain campus. They were married in December of 2022.

“We ran together, and we met the first year I was there,” she said. “He was a year ahead of me, but we graduated the same year. We got engaged the day we graduated. It was perfect.”

Today, as she prepares for her board exams and the next stage of her professional career as a doctor of osteopathic medicine, Yelton is grateful for the unexpected blessing that brought her to Montreat College.

“Montreat was an eventful time period in my life that really changed the trajectory of my life,” she said. “I know that sounds really dramatic, but when I consider what my life would have been like, not going to that college, and not meeting my husband, and not getting into medical school, Montreat was what God used for giving me quite literally everything that I have right now and all the things that I was praying for and dreamed of. He used Montreat so unexpectedly, and it was a really monumental thing for me to find that school and go there.”

Birmingham-Southern’s inspiring, unexpected journey has won over some hearts.

The Panthers, who have kept their season alive as their school is on the brink of shutting down for good Friday, have captured interest with supporters raising more than $100,000 to enhance their trip to the Division III World Series.

By Tuesday afternoon, a GoFundMe page had exceeded its initial $100,000 goal and still is climbing.

Trey Hines, the sports information director for the school from Birmingham, Ala. — for at least a few more days — said the support has been overwhelming.

“It’s been crazy,” Hines said by phone.

Hines said before leaving for Cleveland on Wednesday the team was having a send-off party and being honored before the first pitch of Tuesday night’s Birmingham Barons game.

Birmingham-Southern advanced to the World Series in Eastlake, Ohio, on Saturday despite the team being flattened by food poisoning, with two players hospitalized and others receiving fluid intravenously behind the dugout during a win over Denison.

The NCAA is paying the team’s travel expenses to get to Ohio and home, but the added money can go toward other expenses such as rings to honor the Panthers making it out of the super regional. They beat Denison 10-1 on Friday and then rallied to win 7-6 on Saturday despite the widespread illness.

On Friday, Birmingham-Southern will play on the same day that the private liberal arts college, founded in 1856, closes because of financial problems. Unable to secure a $30 million loan, school officials voted in March to shut down.

The Panthers have been swinging since — going 18-4 since the decision — and if they keep winning, they’ll be the only thing keeping Birmingham-Southern in existence.

They’ll open the double-elimination tournament Friday against No. 2 seed Salve Regina (Rhode Island).

The Panthers feature a familiar name to Chicago baseball fans in starting pitcher Drake LaRoche (8-3, 3.21 ERA). The junior right-hander is the son of former big-league first baseman Adam LaRoche and was at the center of a controversy on the 2016 White Sox when the then-14-year-old Drake’s clubhouse privileges were restricted, leading his father to retire during spring training.

Birmingham-Southern's baseball team flooded with funds for World Series trip as school sets to close

Birmingham-Southern’s inspiring, unexpected journey has won over some hearts

CLEVELAND — The baseball team soon to be without a school has a growing fan base.

Birmingham-Southern’s inspiring, unexpected journey has won over some hearts.

The Panthers, who have kept their season alive as their school is on the brink of shutting down for good on Friday, have captured interest with supporters raising over $100,000 to enhance their trip to the Division III World Series.

As of Wednesday morning, a GoFundMe page had grown to $105,000 with an anonymous donor giving $2,500.

Trey Hines, the sports information director for the school from Birmingham, Alabama, for at least a few more days, said the support has been overwhelming.

“It’s been crazy,” Hines said by phone.

Before taking a chartered flight to Cleveland, the team gathered Wednesday at Birmingham-Southern one last time for a light workout.

Birmingham-Southern advanced to the World Series in Eastlake, Ohio, on Saturday despite the team being flattened by what was initially thought to be food poisoning. Two players had to be hospitalized and others received fluid intravenously behind the dugout during the Panthers’ win over Denison.

Coach Jan Weisberg said the sweeping illness was a strand of norovirus.

Following Saturday’s 7-6 win that clinched the World Series berth, three more players got sick, including slugger Ian Hancock. Weisberg is hoping his team has weathered the worst of the 24-to-48 hour stomach bug.

“Just looking at the roster it can’t be too many more,” Weisberg told al.com. “I think we’re able to get ahead of it now at least because we know what it is. The team doctor says it presents itself like food poisoning. That’s why we initially thought it was food poisoning.”

The NCAA is paying their travel expenses to get to Ohio and home, but the added money can go toward other expenses like rings to honor the Panthers making it out of the Super Regional. The remaining funds are planned to go to the coaching staff.

On Friday, Birmingham-Southern will play on the same day that the private liberal arts college, founded in 1856, closes due to financial problems. Unable to secure a $30 million loan, school officials voted in March to shut down.

The Panthers have been swinging since — going 19-4 since the decision — and if they keep winning, they’ll be the only thing keeping Birmingham-Southern in existence.

They’ll open the double-elimination tournament — hosted by the Lake County Captains, one of the Cleveland Guardians’ minor league affiliates — against No. 2 seed Salve Regina (Rhode Island) on Friday.

'Moana 2' Trailer Reunites Moana and Maui to Answer a Call From the Ancestors | Video

Make way, make way — the first trailer for "Moana 2" is here, taking fans on a whole new voyage.

The sequel takes place three years after the original film, and yes, both Moana and Maui are back, voiced by original film stars Auli'i Cravalho and Dwayne Johnson, respectively.

According to Disney's official synopsis, "After receiving an unexpected call from her wayfinding ancestors, Moana must journey to the far seas of Oceania and into dangerous, long-lost waters for an adventure unlike anything she's ever faced."

You can watch the first trailer for "Moana 2" in the video above.

The sequel to the 2016 hit was first announced back in February, ahead of Disney's Q1 earnings call. It was originally developed as a Disney+ series, but the story was developed and the story repurposed into a feature film.

CinemaCon attendees were treated to an early first look earlier this year, when Dwayne Johnson hit the stage to introduce a clip from the film, which included a brand new song called "We're Back." The footage also revealed that  Moana herself is now a living legend among her people, who regularly tell the story of how she met and worked with Maui to restore the heart of Te Fiti in the first film.

"Moana" has become a fan-favorite from Disney, coming in as the most streamed film of 2023. The film also earned its own place in the Disney parks, with The Journey of Water Inspired by "Moana" in EPCOT.

"Moana 2" hits theaters Thanksgiving 2024.

‘Dropping Very Dramatically’: What Deadly Turbulence Did to a Flight

Singapore Airlines flight SQ321 was a rare instance of turbulence resulting in a death.

Video player loading

By Sui-Lee Wee and Muktita Suhartono

Reporting from Bangkok

The seatbelt sign came on moments after the plane started shaking, but, for some, it was too late.

“Whoever wasn’t buckled down, they were just launched into the air within the cabin,” said Dzafran Azmir, who was among the 211 passengers on board the London-to-Singapore flight that encountered deadly turbulence on Tuesday. “Within an instant, they hit the ceiling of the cabin and dropped right back onto the floor.”

The plane, a Singapore Airlines Boeing 777-300 ER, had taken off from London’s Heathrow Airport on Monday night, about 10 hours earlier. It was about three-quarters full. Many of the travelers were Singaporeans returning home. Some were students studying in England. Others were families and some who had planned a “holiday of a lifetime” to far-flung destinations like Australia.

The bulk of the 13-hour journey of flight SQ321 was over, and many passengers had finished their last meal onboard, a breakfast that these days has been a choice between an omelet with cream cheese or stir-fried Asian noodles, both served with a side of fresh fruit.

By this time, the plane had reached the Bay of Bengal, which sits between the Indian subcontinent and the Malay Peninsula in Southeast Asia. Some pilots consider the region “notorious” this time of the year because its monsoon rains can cause turbulence.

But commercial pilots know how to prepare for such scenarios. They rely on weather radar and carry extra fuel so they can fly around and wait for the weather to ease, if needed. Or they follow the course charted by other planes that recently have passed through the area and have warned air traffic controllers about weather upheavals.

One scenario that is impossible to prepare for is when the skies are clear and the plane’s radar does not detect anything amiss. This phenomenon is known as clear air turbulence.

“It could be the plane just starts shaking, we turn on the seatbelt sign, but, unknowingly, we fall into the clear air turbulence zone,” said Captain Teerawat Angkasakulkiat, president of the Thai Pilots Association. “It’s totally unpredictable.”

A plane emblazoned with the words Star Alliance sits on a tarmac at an airport.

It’s unclear what happened next with SQ321, but there had been thunderstorms near its flight path. As it was flying over Myanmar, cruising at 37,000 feet above the southern section of the country’s biggest river, the Irrawaddy, it hit what the airline later described as “sudden extreme turbulence.”

For the next three to five minutes, the plane shook violently, said Mr. Dzafran, 28, a university student heading home to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, who was buckled into a window seat in row 52.

“Then it built up, like a feeling of going up a roller coaster, up the crest, and suddenly dropping very dramatically,” he recalled.

His bag, stored under the seat in front of him, flew across the plane, and his phone was flung across the aisle. The woman sitting in the row in front of Mr. Dzafran hit her head so hard on the plastic seatbelt indicator sign above her that it broke. Oxygen masks dropped down from the overhead panel. The person behind him hit a seat. Mr. Dzafran was unharmed, but the other two passengers had bloody gashes on their heads.

At least one passenger, it appeared, was able to react quickly enough and buckle her seatbelt. It was a woman sitting behind Mr. Dzafran.

“That was miraculous luck on her side to respond so quickly,” he said.

Another passenger, Teandra Tukhunen, who was sleeping, was not able to react as fast. She was awakened by the turbulence and saw the seatbelt sign come on, but she had no time to fasten it and was thrown to the ceiling, then to the floor, Ms. Tukhunen, 30, a native of Australia, told Sky News from a hospital in Bangkok, her arm in a sling.

Elsewhere on the plane, people started crying and screaming out in pain. The whiplash was so furious that one passenger said that it appeared as if those who had been walking around on the plane were doing somersaults. Dozens of people, including some crew members, were injured.

As things settled down, it was clear that one of the worst affected passengers was a male traveler, Geoff Kitchen. A grandfather of two who ran a local theater group in the town of Thornbury in southwest England, Mr. Kitchen, 73, had planned a six-week “holiday of a lifetime” to Australia and Southeast Asia with his wife of 50 years, Linda.

Andrew Davies, who was sitting in front of Mr. Kitchen, helped carry him out of his seat and laid him on the floor, where he was given C.P.R. for at least 20 minutes.

With the plane now in Thailand’s airspace, the pilot placed a distress call to Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok, asking to make an emergency landing. Then he made an in-flight announcement about the new destination, and asked for anyone who was medically trained to help passengers with injuries.

Forty-five minutes after the ordeal began, Mr. Dzafran said, the plane landed. It was 3.45 p.m. local time.

Several ambulances with flashing lights were standing by. The passengers waited patiently while nurses, emergency medical workers and doctors rushed in to treat the critically injured first. A total of 83 people were injured. Twenty of them were sent to the intensive care unit of a local hospital.

Drew Kessler, the New York-based treasurer of Rotary International who was en route to Singapore for the annual Rotary International Convention, said he had broken his neck while his wife, Vicki, had broken her back.

As Mr. Dzafran prepared to disembark, the crew told passengers to avoid one of the aisles. Mr. Dzafran said he thinks he saw someone lying on the floor. Flight attendants near the business and first class zones were bleeding. Food was strewn across the galleys.

The passengers, dazed and confused, boarded a bus from the tarmac and arrived to a holding area inside the Bangkok airport. Conversations were struck up. A fellow passenger told Mr. Dzafran that someone had died on the plane and showed Mr. Dzafran an online news article. It was Mr. Kitchen. He was the only fatality — one of the few ever blamed on turbulence — and the cause of death hasn’t been released yet.

Singapore Airlines has apologized for the episode, and its investigators have arrived in Bangkok to try to understand what happened.

Mr. Dzafran was among the 143 passengers who emerged unscathed. So was his seatmate, who he said also had her seatbelt on.
