Students, Faculty Gather at
Dr. Jarrell’s House
More than 150 students and faculty attended a Sunday afternoon social at
the Severna Park home of Dr. Bruce Jarrell, senior associate dean for academic
affairs. The intention of the event, held on November 16, was to promote
fellowship within the medical school community. Participants were asked
to bring a dish for sharing and soft drinks were provided. Many gathered
around the television to cheer for the Ravens, while others played catch
with a football, roasted marshmallows and enjoyed conversing. Faculty and
staff in attendance included Drs. Jack Gladstein, David Mallott, S. Michael
Plaut, Donna Parker, ’86, and Gary Plotnick, ’66. Additional
events are being planned. |
Weinberg Building Dedication
A nine-level, $218 million addition to the medical center was dedicated
in November. The soaring atrium represents the final phase of an expansion
and
renovation campaign to help Maryland forge a reputation as a
cutting-edge institution serving a statewide constituency with the finest in
health care. The upcoming spring issue of the Bulletin will feature the Harry
and Jeanette Weinberg Building. |

Freshmen Receive White Coats
The white coat of the medical clinician and scientist
represents knowledge, skill, integrity, and the highest standards of professional
work whether in the classroom, laboratory, or clinic. This traditional
symbol was passed on to Maryland’s 155 freshmen during an elegant
ceremony on November 13 in the MSTF Auditorium.

To
emphasize the tradition, a Davidge Hall embroidery (funded by the Medical
Alumni Association) was sewn onto each coat.
The program included
presentations by Dean Wilson, Dr. Bruce Jarrell, senior associate
dean for academic affairs, and resident Joshua Forman, ’01.
A reception for the first year class and their families followed in the
atrium.
