Laurel's White Coat Ceremony











The kick off of medical school includes the Matriculation and White Coat Ceremony. We attended Laurel's MSU ceremony last Sunday in Grand Rapids. Grandma, Tommy, Phil, Brenda and I were all able to attend. They did a nice job with the ceremony and we were so proud of Laurel. FYI: medical students wear the short white coats during their four years of medical school. When they graduate (as Keith will in May) they receive their MD degree and the official long white coat worn by the doctors.

We also had a tour of the medical school facilities. They are beautiful and have a great view of Grand Rapids. What a great place to study. From the medical building you able to see my very first office - 7th floor of City Hall.
