Manchester University pharmacy White Coat Ceremony is Aug. 4

The Manchester University annual White Coat Ceremony for the pharmacy Class of 2021 is 5 p.m. Friday, Aug. 4, in Cordier Auditorium on the North Manchester campus.

Seating opens at 4:30 p.m. It is free and open to the public.

The ceremony is a rite of passage for students beginning their study of pharmacy in Manchester’s four-year doctoral program. 

This year, the ceremony will feature a special keynote address from Dr. Andrea Whitaker, a graduate of Manchester’s 2016 inaugural pharmacy class. The Fort Wayne resident is an MU instructor of pharmacy practice and was recently hired into Manchester’s post-graduate residency program in Fort Wayne.

The University is now recruiting for its new Pharmacy Early Assurance Program for incoming first-year undergraduate students interested in pursuing a path to becoming a pharmacist.
