White Coat Day 2001
The traditional White Coat Ceremony took place on August 30 this year in each of the student societies. Donning a white coat is a rite of passage for incoming students, allowing them to dress the part of a doctor as they begin learning to become one.
Shown above is Daniel Lowenstein, dean for medical education, as he addresses the new first-year class.
Joseph Martin, dean of the Faculty of Medicine, welcomes the new students to HMS from the steps of Gordon Hall.
