Service to Man

It's 1967 and Eli Rosenberg has a problem. Only one medical school in the country will accept him: Meharry Medical College, a legendary all-black school in Nashville, Tennessee. Michael DuBois has a problem. Only one medical school in the country will do: Meharry Medical College, his father's alma mater, and therefore his, whether he likes it or not. Eli and Michael have a problem. They're awkward, they're outsiders, and they hate each other-but the moment they arrive, they're forced to work together within the explosive pressure cooker of the turbulent 1960s. These uncommon allies battle the mysteries of medicine; demanding professors; crushing parental pressures; and an entire student body distrustful of them both.
