UC Lab Coat Ceremony
Wednesday, November 29th marked a special moment
for 79 University City High School seniors who participated in the Lab Coat
Ceremony that was held at the First Baptist Church off of Governor Drive. These seniors are currently participating in
the Patient Care and Biotechnology Pathways at University City High School.
This is a four course Biomedical Project Lead the Way sequence over their high
school tenure. This is the largest
number of students for this ceremony, which “packed the house.” The White Coat Ceremony celebrates a “rite
of passage” for seniors as they prepare to participate in various internships
during the upcoming spring semester.
These students will spend time in various clinical settings ranging from
UCSD Hospital, VA Hospital, biomedical companies and even local vet
clinics. This event acknowledges the
hard work accomplished by the students who participate in the University City
High School Biomedical platinum pathways program.
