| The office of Alumni Affairs is excited to
announce the creation of an alumni chapter for graduates of the Physical
Therapy Education Program. The alumni organization was formally established
thanks to a group of ambitious volunteers and with the aid of the
administration at the School of Allied Health Professions.
The first alumni chapter membership mailing
was sent in July 2005. If you
have any questions or are interested in participating in this new Chapter,
please email alumni@unmc.edu or call
402-559-4385 or sign up to the left at Join Your Association!

2007 Inaugural PT White
Coat Ceremony
Hosted by the Physical Therapy Alumni
Chapter
Thirty-nine pressed
white coats recently hung at the front of the Durham Research Center
auditorium. A card in the pocket revealed the name of
the UNMC physical therapy education alumnus that sponsored the coat.
That detail -- tucked in 39 pockets -- was a unique feature
of the UNMC Division of Physical Therapy Education's Class of 2009 inaugural
white coat ceremony on Jan. 11, 2007.
Eugene Svec of Kearney, president of the Physical
Therapy Alumni Chapter and a 1996 graduate of the program, welcomed the
students and their family and friends.
