What is the White Coat Ceremony?

Tulane medical students' careers begin with the White Coat Ceremony, which affirms their commitment and dedication to their patients and to themselves as they enter medical school. At the White Coat Ceremony, students will receive a white coat and a Gold Humanism lapel pin, compliments of the Tulane Medical Alumni Association. Each student may bring 8 guests.
