  • Our Living Legacy: HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES
    120 Years 1893 - 2013 Our Living Legacy: HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES 2013 ANNUAL REPORT & HONOR ROLL www.mcw.edu Dear Friends and Colleagues In 2013, we celebrated the 120th anniversary of the Medical College of Wisconsin. Our origin dates to 1893 with the establishment of the Wisconsin College of Physicians and Surgeons. It was the vision of our founders to educate physicians and scientists who would go forth to meet the health needs of the growing population and raise the standard of medical care in Wisconsin communities and beyond. Throughout its history, this institution has served as a prime force for improving the level of health in our community and state. Our legacy can be measured in the thousands of doctors and scientists taught and trained here, and in more than 200 significant research discoveries made by faculty that have improved medical capabilities. But ultimately our legacy is told in the countless people restored to healthier lives. From the roots planted 120 years ago, MCW has grown into a nationally recognized leader in education, research, clinical Jon D. Hammes (Far right) care, and community engagement. Our work today and the Chairman, Board of Trustees, Medical College of Wisconsin actions we set in motion now will affect the health and lives of generations ahead. In this Report, we honor our anniversary by highlighting stories that connect our past and future and carry John R. Raymond, Sr., MD (Center) forward our legacy of creating healthier communities.

  • 2014 Seattle National Student Electronic Media Convention
    National Student Electronic Media Convention Seattle, WA #CBISeattle October 23-25, 2014 OCTOBER 2014 Welcome to Seattle! On behalf of the College Broadcasters, Inc. (CBI) Board of Directors, I’d like to welcome you to Seattle for the National Student Electronic Media Convention (NSEMC), or CBI Seattle for short. CBI Seattle is America’s top convention dedicated exclusively to the interests of student radio stations, TV/video outlets, and webcasters. Whichever category—or categories—you fall into, we are confident that you will leave the convention with the skills and motivation to improve your student media outlet. In its third year, the NSEMC continues to grow. Among the improvements this year are an additional breakout room, giving you the choice of six sessions during most time slots; a pre-convention workshop—FCC 101, an intensive, three-hour pre-convention workshop hosted by a veteran adviser and a nationally-known attorney. That’s in addition to what’s made us so successful since our inception—high-quality sessions led by advisers and media professionals, student-led roundtables, and networking and social opportunities. I am pleased to announce that this year’s keynote address will be given by Seattle broadcast legend John Curley. During his 30-year radio and TV career, John has earned numerous accolades, including multiple local Emmy Awards and the Edward R. Murrow Award for Excellence in Journalism. John previously hosted KING 5 TV’s “Evening Magazine”—America’s highest-rated regionally produced TV show for fourteen years—and currently hosts “The Curley and Tom Morning Show” on KIRO 97.3 FM.
