LEWISBURG, WV (LOOTPRESS) – The West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine (WVSOM) has announced intentions to sign an agreement with representatives of the Greenbrier Military School Alumni Assocation to ensure the continuation of the Greenbrier Military School Museum’s curation.

The West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine operates at the former location of the Greenbrier Military School, with the main building of the medical school having served as the central structure for GMS.
