Senior Banquet 2019

The Senior Banquet for the Class of 2019 took place on May 8, 2019 at the Cleone Peterson Eccles Alumni House. Graduates, their loved ones, faculty, and preceptors gathered together in celebrating the class's accomplishments. The ceremony began with a dinner buffet, and after a brief introduction from event emcee, Dr. Karen Gunning, graduates were given honorary mortars and pestles. Moving forward, Outstanding PharmD students, graduate students, faculty members, and preceptors were awarded with both local and national accolades. A handful of PharmD students were given various graduation cords for their involvement in clubs or for academic achievement. The event wrapped up with a speech by Dean Randall Peterson, after which event attendees mingled in celebration of a great school year.
