A weekend of milestones

This weekend, medical students of the class of 2010 and 2012 will share the stage of the Phillips Center for the Performing Arts for two very important events in their medical careers: the College of Medicine Commencement Ceremony and White Coat Ceremony. Over the next several days, the Insider will feature graduate profiles, live webcasts of each of the events and more. Take part in these College of Medicine traditions and join the students as they embark on the next chapter of their lives.
