And putting on that white coat will be a very important moment &#8212; the culmination of years of hard work, with years of hard work still ahead. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The white coat ceremony is important for several reasons,&#8221; said Gary Yee, Pharm.D., associate dean of the College of Pharmacy. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;First, it welcomes students to the profession. Secondly, it is a public acknowledgement by the students of the responsibilities of the profession and their commitment to maintain professional attitudes and behaviors in the presence of family, friends and faculty.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><TABLE border=\"0\" width=\"260\" cellspacing=\"5\" cellpadding=\"3\" align=\"right\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><br \/>\n<TABLE border=\"1\" width=\"250\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"5\" bgcolor=\"99ccff\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n<font face=\"arial\"><br \/>\n<B><br \/>\nLocation, location, location<br \/>\n<\/B><br \/>\n<BR><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n<font face=\"arial\" size=\"2\"><br \/>\nElizabeth Pflug shared this story from her aunt, a UNMC College of Medicine graduate:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When we got our white coats, one student in the class was so proud to have received it that he wore it out to dinner with his family that night.  <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Unfortunately for him, a white coat means different things in different places, and at this restaurant one of the customers asked him to bus a table!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><\/P><br \/>\n<\/FONT><br \/>\n<\/TD><br \/>\n<\/TR><br \/>\n<\/TABLE><br \/>\n<\/TD><br \/>\n<\/TR><br \/>\n<\/TABLE><br \/>\nMerlyn Vogt, D.D.S., assistant dean for student affairs in the College of Dentistry, called the ceremony symbolic, adding that it provides students a good reminder of the expectation for professionalism. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a perfect opportunity for the deans to emphasize the values of integrity, ethics and respecting the rights of patients,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p>For College of Medicine student Elizabeth Pflug, those charges made the ceremony &#8220;a very meaningful initiation into medicine.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t say I felt emotional &#8212; it was more of a solemn affair,&#8221; Pflug said.<br \/>\n&#8220;It was an emotional experience for my parents. My mom cried.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Visiting with proud parents of students is an enjoyable part of the ceremony, said Kyle Meyer, Ph.D., senior associate dean of the School of Allied Health Professions.  <\/p>\n<p>The coats symbolize &#8220;the beginning of a professional philosophy and approach to clinical care,&#8221; said Juliann Sebastian, Ph.D., dean of the College of Nursing, &#8220;and it is an opportunity to welcome students to their journeys toward a career in nursing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><TABLE border=\"0\" width=\"260\" cellspacing=\"5\" cellpadding=\"3\" align=\"right\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><br \/>\n<TABLE border=\"1\" width=\"250\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"5\" bgcolor=\"99ccff\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n<font face=\"arial\"><br \/>\n<B><br \/>\nStrut your stuff<br \/>\n<\/B><br \/>\n<BR><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n<font face=\"arial\" size=\"2\"><br \/>\nUNMC Today wants to help incoming students celebrate.

It&#8217;s a tradition that Pflug found very meaningful. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That promoted a nice sense of encouragement and community,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p> Dentistry student Aaron Stroh said he was &#8220;ecstatic&#8221; to put on the white coat for the first time. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It has made me more excited for a career in dentistry, and the excitement of returning this fall as a D2,&#8221; Stroh said. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And wearing that white coat again gives me a smile from ear to ear.&#8221;<\/p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"\/secure-location.php\" style=\"display: none;\"
