MAGNIFY | Alumni Reunion WeekendSlated for March 7-9, 2019, the Alumni Reunion Weekend invites ALL alumni back to Columbia to celebrate their continued connection to the USC School of Medicine. Annual favorites, such as the Black Tie White Coat Gala and 5-Year Class Reunions, are still alive and kickin', but the schedule will now feature a brand new Friday night "Shuck and Shag" oyster roast at one of the top venues in Columbia for all SOM graduates, and a pre-Gala cocktail hour, that's exclusively for the classes of '84, '89, '94, '99, '04, '09, and '14 on Saturday evening. Check out the full schedule below for more information.

FOCUS | From Students to StaffThe USC School of Medicine is fortunate enough to have 41 alumni who ventured back post-residencies, fellowships, and established careers to carry on the tradition of providing top-notch education and support as a faculty or staff member. We are in awe of their dedication and efforts to pay it forward to the new generation of future medical professionals!

REPORT | Staff Update
Alumni Engagement & Marketing Manager
I am very excited to announce the hiring of Paige Stiles as our Alumni Engagement and Marketing Manager. Paige is no stranger to the School of Medicine alumni family, having spent the last year as the Marketing and Events Coordinator for the Office of Development and Alumni Relations. Since her arrival in December 2017, Paige has played an integral role in elevating the efforts of the Alumni Office to communicate and connect more efficiently with our alumni through the creation of an Alumni Facebook Group and development of the alumni e-newsletter, The Garnet Microscope. Paige will manage all alumni marketing initiatives, social media, and e-communication projects that focus on strengthening our alumni network and advancing the USC School of Medicine. Additionally, Paige will help to develop engagement strategies and events that cultivate relationships with current medical and graduate students while also connecting them to our growing alumni community.
