"The Best Years Lie Ahead"

Fourth-year student Craig Barkan, Tom Varbedian and Jamie Baker Knauss

Greeting members of the MCAS Board and their guests at a special dinner on March 17, 2000, to celebrate the Alumni Society's 40th anniversary, Medical School Dean Allen S. Lichter proclaimed his belief that even with 150 years of illustrious history to its credit, "the best years of our Medical School lie ahead of us."

Praising MCAS as an organization that helps keep the Medical School vibrant and thriving, Dean Lichter and Gil Omenn, M.D., Ph.D., executive vice president for medical affairs, congratulated MCAS on its own four decades of history and its superlative record of involvement in the affairs and future direction of the School.
