The West Virginia University School of Dentistry is excited to welcome alumni and friends to Morgantown for a day of sharing knowledge and Mountaineer spirit. Hosted by the School’s Alumni Association on Nov. 8, a continuing education course and tailgate are planned at Erickson Alumni Center ahead of the WVU football game against the University of Colorado at Milan Puskar Stadium.
Dr. Michael George (’84), president of the Alumni Association, invites all alumni and friends to celebrate and reconnect: “Come join us as we combine a day of learning, fellowship and support of our beloved Mountaineers!”
The continuing education course, “History of Infections, Infectious Diseases, and Vaccinations: What We Know and What We Don’t Know,” will be presented by Dr. Robert “Coach” Wanker and Dr. Jerry Bouquot.
The course will begin five hours prior to kickoff, which will be announced at a later date, and is approved for two continuing education credits. The cost of attendance is $125 for dentists and $100 for dental hygienists.
Immediately following the course, approximately three hours prior to kickoff, a BBQ-theme buffet will be served indoors at Erickson Alumni Center. The tailgate is included in the cost for individuals attending the continuing education opportunity. For those who are only able to attend the tailgate, the cost is $40. Current students and staff can register by contacting Cathy Boyce by Nov. 3.
Register online for both events.
In addition to the continuing education opportunity and tailgate, the football game will recognize Military Appreciation, and Mountaineer Week will take place on campus Nov. 3-9.
