Celebrates White Coat Ceremony Dr. Jeremy Rae, Assistant Dean of Student Affairs At Xavier University School of Medicine, all first-semester MD students experience the ritual of the White Coat Ceremony, when students put on their white coat for the first time and recite the Medical Student Pledge of Professional Conduct, symbolizing the beginning of their journey as a medical student. On Friday, January 7, Xavier University School of Medicine welcomed members of the incoming Spring 2022 MD class for their White Coat Ceremony. The first speaker, Chief Academic Officer Dr. Arun Kumar Dubey, spoke about the mission of Xavier and how students can successfully navigate through the journey of medical school upon which they are about to embark. Dr. Dubey emphasized the ongoing physician shortage–a global issue, but one that will particularly affect the United States–as the need for doctors continues to increase.
