The MSTP’s M1 class took part in the UC College of Medicine’s 2019 M1 White Coat Ceremony. The traditional cloaking of the white coat – the mantle of the medical professional – marks the students’ official entrance into medical school.  It also symbolically marks the responsibility placed on each student’s shoulders to carry out the noble tradition of being a physician and practicing medicine with confidence and compassion.
