*Reunion Classes Rally Behind Scholarship During the 2004 Class Reunion Weekend, Dean Daly recognized eight classes that campaigned to raise money to benefit scholarships at the Medical School in honor of the graduation anniversaries they were celebrating. Altogether they raised $463,000— nearly a half million dollars. This amount will provide partial tuition grants for one or more students per year for all four years of medical school—in perpetuity. The box at (right) illustrates the level of scholarship support that comes from various levels of investment. Many thanks to the leadership of each class that that led the campaign: CLASS LEADERSHIP
