While the Residency in Emergency Medicine prepares physicians for the clinical practice of emergency medicine, there is certainly time for residents to get out, socialize and have some fun! In fact, the program encourages residents to spend time getting to know each other, forming lasting friendships and memories.

Emergency Medicine Resident Graduation Party
Graduating residents are subject to a roast by the program director or 'roastmaster', all in good fun, surrounded by well-wishers, and complete with awards, dinner, and dancing!! The yearly event takes place in an elegant restaurant complete with an outdoor patio and dance floor. The atmosphere is fun, friendly, and memorable as these pictures indicate.
