ALUMNI WEEKEND GOES VIRTUAL
VIRTUAL CELEBRATION
October 8, 2021
Due to rising cases of COVID-19, the in-person October 7-9 event has been canceled. Our first priority is the health and safety of our alumni, friends, faculty, staff and students. While we cannot gather for Alumni Weekend in person this year, the UF College of Medicine is thinking of you. We are proud of all the alumni physicians, physician assistants and researchers who have advanced the field of medicine over the past 60+ years. You can reconnect virtually this year with lectures via Zoom on October 8. We look forward to seeing you in Gainesville soon. Go Gators!
