God at the Speed of Light Endowed Scholarship
Dr. Thomas Lee Baumann (1950–2026) dedicated his life to advancing medicine, lifelong learning, and the education of future physicians. As a member of the charter class of Southern Illinois University School of Medicine, he understood firsthand the transformative power of medical education and remained committed to supporting the next generation of physicians throughout his life.
In addition to his distinguished career in medicine, Dr. Baumann became a celebrated author, exploring the intersection of science, spirituality, and human understanding. Through his books—including God at the Speed of Light—he inspired readers around the world while dedicating the proceeds from his publications to establishing endowed scholarships for students pursuing careers in medicine.
Today, the God at the Speed of Light Endowed Scholarship continues Dr. Baumann's vision by providing financial support to SIU School of Medicine students as they prepare to serve patients and communities with compassion, curiosity, and excellence.
Your gift honors Dr. Baumann's remarkable legacy while investing in the physicians who will shape the future of health care.
