2015 Tufts Medicine Reunion April 24 26, 2015 Boston, MA Reconnect Reminisce Rediscover
Dear Tufts Alumni and Friends, We are planning a great Tufts Medicine Reunion this year. I am pleased to invite you and your family to attend the many activities occurring April 24 26, 2015. In addition to meeting up with classmates to reminisce and learn about the great changes that have taken place at Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM), we are planning a fun and interesting weekend with activities including guest speakers on the history of the medical school, the Boston Dispensary, the Floating Hospital, and Tufts Medical Center. We hope that this will serve to remind us of our wonderful roots in patient care, research, and teaching. Along with this, we are introducing two new educational opportunities for Tufts alumni. While we continue to provide teaching and educational activities at the medical school, the Alumni Council and Dean Harris Berman are embarking on two new projects, one of which will reach nationally while the other will focus on global opportunities. Each of these exciting endeavors will involve patient care and teaching opportunities for underserved populations while utilizing talented TUSM alumni. I m also pleased to unveil the Reunion Giving Awards every gift, pledge, and bequest made to a Tufts school or program will count. It s a nice way to celebrate your reunion and make an immediate impact on TUSM. Please join your classmates, current medical students, the TMAA Council, faculty, and administrators this spring in Boston. I look forward to seeing you in April. Sincerely, Thomas R. Hedges III, M.D., M75 President, Tufts Medical Alumni Association
