It's More Than a Coat ... It's a Calling

In August, the University of Mississippi School of Pharmacy will welcome 80 new pharmacy students to the class of 2027 at our annual White Coat Ceremony. 

Although much has changed in pharmacy education, the importance and excitement of receiving the white coat have not. As all pharmacists know, wearing the white coat – a symbol of professionalism and commitment to all future patients – is a special milestone.

We invite you to connect with these student pharmacists and sponsor a white coat experience for an individual student. Donors who are committed to the school’s success form its strong foundation of excellence and create the Ole Miss Pharmacy “phamily” atmosphere of welcome and encouragement. Let’s come together to demonstrate to these 80 new students that they are not only part of the pharmacy profession but are also part of the Ole Miss Pharmacy phamily: pharmacy leaders, innovators and providers across the country.

Your sponsorship is a tangible way to celebrate these future pharmacists and wish them well on their professional journeys. As a sponsor, you will have the opportunity to include a note of congratulations in the pocket of the student’s white coat so each student feels connected immediately to Ole Miss Pharmacy and is reminded of his or her commitment to patient care.

Today, please choose to sponsor a future Ole Miss pharmacist. Gifts of all sizes make a profound and immediate impact. Your support shows that the generosity of our phamily keeps pharmacy education and the profession moving forward.
