Campus Day: Monday, April 6, 2009

Please consult the following schedule for a detailed itinerary of Campus Day activities. We have scheduled blocks of free time to allow sufficient flexibility for each student to pursue those activities of greatest personal interest and relevance. Program faculty, preceptors, and in-resident students will be available to help you identify classes you would like to visit and to find your way around. For those who prefer self-tours, we will provide a list of locations of interest.
