Welcomes Home the Class of 2010 VCOM Written by Lisa Leichner

V COM celebrated Homecoming weekend September 11 and 12 with many alumni from the Class of 2010 returning to the Virginia campus with their families to reconnect with classmates, faculty, and staff. Friday afternoon began with Continuing Medical Education (CME) lectures. Invited speakers included 2010 graduates, Katie Glymph, DO, Sumeet Goel, DO, Mark Haygood, DO, and Frederic Rawlins III, DO. Each lectured on a topic from his or her medical specialty. President Tooke- Rawlins, Dean Willcox, and President Emeritus Wolfe, sat in on CME lectures and enjoyed listening to VCOM graduates give informative lectures. After the lectures, over 100 guests made the drive to the outskirts of Blacksburg to enjoy a beautiful evening of fun at the Beliveau Estate Winery. Children played on the sprawling lawn while parents caught up with their old classmates and professors. Guests enjoyed drinks, food, and music performed by New River Bound, a local, old- time band, which includes VCOM’s Jessica Muller, Education Specialist.
