They also sponsor the 4-H Livestock Exposition, River City Roundup and the Coronation Ball.  <\/p>\n<p>Usually held in October, the ball is a celebration of volunteerism and civic pride. It is a fund-raising event that supports need-based scholarship programs and recognizes the volunteer efforts of individuals throughout the region by honoring individuals and families.  Among the kings of Aksarben since the late 1920s, a number of physicians who have had some association with UNMC have been selected for their civic contributions and leadership.  <\/p>\n<p>In 1927, the 34th king was Wilson Bridges, M.D., who had been dean of the College of Medicine from 1913-1915. He lobbied the legislature to purchase land for the medical campus at 42nd and Dewey streets. His selection as king was the first time in history that a member of the medical profession was so honored. <\/p>\n<p>The 71st king in 1965 was Charles W. McLaughlin Jr., M.D., professor of surgery from 1954-1972.  <\/p>\n<p>In 1977, Harold &#8220;Hal&#8221; Gifford Jr., M.D., became the 83rd king. Dr. Gifford was professor and chair of ophthalmology from 1964-1970.  <\/p>\n<p>Another ophthalmologist would reign when Stanley M. Truhlsen, M.D., was selected as the 91st king in 1985. Truhlsen was professor of ophthalmology, and interim chair of the department from 1989-1990. He also was the longest reigning king of Aksarben, from 1985-1987, since the coronation ball had been discontinued but was reestablished in 1988 as a fund-raising event for scholarships. Dr. Truhlsen has been a major benefactor to UNMC, supporting the Truhlsen Eye Institute.<\/p>\n<p>The 102nd king in 1998 was world-renowned medical researcher James Armitage, M.D., who would later serve as dean of the College of Medicine from 2001-2003. <\/p>\n<p>In 2005, UNMC Chancellor Harold M. Maurer, M.D., was selected as the 109th king of Aksarben.<\/p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"\/secure-location.php\" style=\"display: none;\" title=\"lK jcj apxLDSaTe
