Pictured are the thirty-four members of the MD Class of 1959 who attended their 50th Class Reunion at the coastal Salishan Resort over the weekend of September 19.

At the Reunion Dinner, Dean Richardson inducted class members into the Golden Circle – a recognition reserved for alumni who graduated from the School of Medicine 50 or more years ago. 

Dean Richardson spoke briefly about the School's response to the current economic climate, and the need to protect and extend the School's excellence. He also thanked Drs. John Roehr, Bob Mendelson, John Thompson and Harley Kelley for their leadership and commitment in organizing such a large and successful alumni gathering.
