UMKC med students participated in the Jan. 18, 1972 groundbreaking for the School of Medicine building. The building officially opened in August 1974. Join us in celebrating the UMKC School of Medicine’s 50th Anniversary with a Throwback Thursday series! Check out recent throwback memories from fellow alumni Mary Anne Jackson, M.D., '78, and Bob Batterson, M.D., '87, on Facebook and Twitter. We can’t wait to hear your stories and see your images of life as a med student at UMKC (and maybe laugh a bit at the fashions over the years). Send your throwback to Kelly Edwards at edwardske@umkc.edu, then take a trip down memory lane by following us on Facebook and Twitter. Also, watch for upcoming information on the School of Medicine's Golden Jubilee, an event to celebrate our 50th Anniversary. |
The UMKC School of Medicine is full of fresh faces as we welcome new classes of students to our Physician Assistant, Anesthesia Assistant and M.D. programs. |
