alumni weekend
In his invitation to Alumni Weekend 2015, Alumni Association President Joe Majdan, MD, CV ’81, said, “While some of the buildings and faces have changed, what has not changed are those ideals, those principles, that esprit de corps that for the past 191 years have uniquely defined and sustained us, not only as a medical college but also as the Jefferson family.” Many members of this Jefferson family returned to campus Oct. 16–17 to relive their medical-school memories and reconnect with old peers and friends.
The weekend included a guided trolley tour of Philadelphia and 50-Year Society induction for the Class of 1965 in celebration of their 50th reunion; the annual luncheon with Dean Mark Tykocinski, MD, during which the 2015 Alumni Achievement Award was presented to Peter Scoles, MD ’70; lectures by Simon Gratz Prize winners Vincenzo Berghella, MD '90, Richard Spaide, MD '81, and Richard Wenzel, MD '65; campus tours; a reunion dinner gala at the Westin Philadelphia for class years ending in 0s and 5s; and much more. Thank you to all who joined us for Alumni Weekend 2015. We hope to see you next time on Oct. 14–15, 2016!
