On September 14, 2002 the OU-COM community welcomed its new class of 109
 students with the annual Convocation and White Coat ceremony.  During the White Coat
 ceremony, first year students select a family member (s), a spouse or a close friend to
 "coat" them.  The donning of the white coat signifies the beginning of one's challenging and exciting journey to become a physician.
