\n<\/TABLE>Look at this Facebook photo gallery<\/a> that features our newest students doing their best “McKayla faces,” then “Like” your favorites. The person or people whose photo gets the most likes by 8 a.m. on Monday will get, naturally, a silver medal. <\/p>\n

On a more serious note, but only slightly so based on some of our photos, you also can check out these images<\/a> of UNMC’s newest students as they use a white board to make predictions about lives after graduation from UNMC. <\/p>\n

Let’s keep these photos handy to see how much things change when these guys and gals get ready to move on in a few years.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
