Dear Vanderbilt University Medical Alumni,<\/p>\n

Congratulations, VUSM Class of 2015<\/strong>
\nThe Vanderbilt Medical Alumni Association (VMAA) proudly welcomed the newest members of our medical alumni family, the VUSM Class of 2015, at a faculty appreciation\/\u201dalmost alumni\u201d luncheon on May 6. I know each of you joins me in celebrating their achievements as we begin to eagerly anticipate learning of their success in future alumni news\/worthy of note editions of Vanderbilt Medicine magazine.<\/p>\n

VMAA Host Program<\/strong>
\nMore than 385 alumni participate in our VMAA Host Program. The interview cycle for the VUSM class of 2016 will begin soon. Please see the website to learn more about this program, which greatly decreases travel costs for our fourth-year students as they travel the country for residency interviews. Your participation as a host will be greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n

\nOur next biennial VUSM Reunion is scheduled for Oct. 20-22, 2016, in conjunction with VU\u2019s Homecoming festivities. All VUSM classes ending in 0,1, 5, 6, the Quinq Classes \u201866 and \u201867, and the Quinq Plus classes (1965 and earlier) will gather for special anniversary class parties on Oct. 21. Visit our website for a preliminary schedule and check back frequently for updates.<\/p>\n
