Dear Class of 2022,

We are pleased to be providing the for your Ceremony and your first year of pharmacy school. We would like to give you a few tips for ordering and ask that you email your size to Michele Graybeal at [email protected] as soon as possible, but before May 20. This is important in order to assure that that everyone’s correct size is available.

Your coat will be a short lab coat – often called a consultation coat. It is styled like a sport coat or coat. It also will feature the Gatton College of Pharmacy embroidered logo on the chest .

Men: sizes range from 32-56 regular and 38-56 long/tall (Think sport coat size.) Women: sizes range from 0-20 regular and 8-20 long/tall (Think size.) All sizes are even numbers (e.g., there is no size 37.)

Tips: If you have long arms, consider ordering a tall. The sleeve is 2” longer than regular. Remember, you will be wearing this coat over regular , so consider going up a size.

If you have questions about sizing, you are encouraged to try on a coat at a medical store near you. You will want to try on the META brand coat, styles 678/679 or 738/739. In Johnson City, you may visit one of these stores:

ETSU Medical Bookstore at

824 West Walnut St. Johnson City, TN 37604 701 N. State of Franklin

Suite 11 805 Sunset Dr. Johnson City, TN 37604 Johnson City, TN 37664

Please respond to Michele by May 20. We look forward to hearing from you soon and meeting you again as you begin your pharmacy education!
