As you know, Alumni Day 2020 is fast approaching! Student registration closes at noon on Friday, March 13 (only one week from today). As a reminder, if you follow the below instructions, you will have an excused absence that doesn’t go against your bank.
As a member of the Class of 2020, you play a special role in Alumni Day as it is the first time your new colleagues have the opportunity to welcome you to the profession. As a gift to you, many of your soon to be fellow alumni and some of your faculty have graciously chosen to support your attendance; therefore we are pleased to announce that as a member of this year’s graduating class, you are invited to attend the 2020 Alumni Day as a no-charge guest.
Alumni Day information is as follows:
- Alumni Day will be held on Friday, March 27 at The Inn at St. John’s in Plymouth, Michigan
- Registration opens at 7:30 a.m., and the course begins at 8:30 a.m.
- Alumni Day consists of breakfast, continuing education, research presentations and a networking luncheon
- The course titled, “Presenting the Best Treatment Plan AND Getting Your Patient’s Buy-in” is being taught by alumnus Jason G. Souyias, D.D.S. ’02. This course will be of great benefit as you transition from student to practitioner.
All members of the Class of 2020 are encouraged and welcome to attend at no charge and will have an excused absence from clinics when the following protocol is adhered to:
- DS4 students are required to register by noon on Friday, March 13. Students must then provide both their PSA and clinic lead a copy of their Alumni Day confirmation email.
- DH2 students are required to register by noon on Friday, March 13 and present their research posters as a component of Prof. Shepherd and Dr. Wheater’s Scientific Presentation course.
- If you register, you are expected to attend. A copy of the attendance report will be accessible to the administration after the event.
- If registration is completed 2 weeks in advance and you attend Alumni Day, you will be excused from the clinic on March 27 and will not need to use one of your allowed clinic absences from your bank.
