The White Coat Ceremony is a symbolic rite of passage. In the presence of family and guests, new medical students are welcomed into the community by leaders of the College of Medicine, where they are ceremonially cloaked with doctors’ white coats. They stand to take the oath committing them to the profession of healing, impressing upon them the primacy of the doctor-patient relationship.For more information email COMStudentAffairs@health.fau.eduWatch video of last year's White Coat Ceremony!
