Match Day for Med Students

 

It’s the day when graduating medical students get to meet their match—the program they have matched with for their residencies. At this year’s Match Day—Thursday, March 17, 2005, also St. Patrick’s Day—Dean Robert M. Glickman, M.D., was on hand to congratulate students and share in their celebrations.

Of the 157 members of the Class of ’05 who participated in this year’s matching process, 23 will remain at NYU and two will go to the Hospital for Joint Diseases Orthopaedic Institute for their residencies.
