Future Aggie doctors attend white coat ceremony July 25, 2007 The Texas A&M Battalion, July 25, 2007 COLLEGE STATION - Ryan Mulligan, Class of 2007, will be putting on a white coat for the first time. Mulligan is part of the College of Medicine's Class of 2011, and Saturday's white coat ceremony is the starting point of his medical career. The Texas A&M College of Medicine is celebrating its 30-year anniversary and the 25-year anniversary of the Class of 1982, as well as welcoming the Class of 2011. Saturday is the white coat ceremony for the incoming Class of 2011. "We have 106 incoming students this year, the largest ever," Morgan said. Randall J. Urban, Class of 1982, will be the ceremony speaker at 10 a.m. Urban is the chairman of internal medicine at the University of Texas Medical Branch and said he hopes to give the Class of 2011 advice that will help guide them in their medical career. "These common sense rules are key to a successful career in medical school or anything else," Urban said. Urban said his experience at Texas A&M medical school helped him with what he does today. "I believe one of the things Texas A&M medical school focuses on is the importance of community outreach," Urban said. « Back | The Newsroom »
