WSU’s Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine will graduate its first class of medical students at the end of the spring 2021 semester.
In 2017, the college’s dean welcomed the first class of students, said Christina VerHeul, director of communications, marketing and strategic operations at WSU’s College of Medicine. The dean shared a quote during the event: “The beauty of the first time is that it leads to 1,000 firsts.”
VerHeul said this inspired a campaign to capture all the thousands of firsts that will happen for the students and the school. The college has been collecting students’ and faculties’ first memories since then.
