Cubs Rooftop Outing 2017
Go Cubs Go!
The Medical Alumni Association (MAA) hosted a RECORD-BREAKING Cubs Rooftop Outing on Sunday, June 4, in Wrigleyville. We had 450 alumni and friends join us to watch our World Series Champion Cubs lead us to victory over the Cardinals, 7-6! It was a beautiful day for a ballgame and wonderful to see and meet so many members of our Feinberg community. 

Congratulations to our raffle winners, Allison Curry and Richard Bonebreak, who each won fun Feinberg swag bags.

Thank you to everyone who joined us!

Greetings from Beautiful 
La Jolla, California!

Many of our wonderful San Diego-area medical school alumni and friends joined Dean Eric G. Neilson, MD, and members of our Feinberg alumni relations team for gatherings earlier this month in picturesque La Jolla, California.   
 
A special thank you to our fabulous hosts, Wally Doren '57, '61 MD, '66 GME, and Barb Doren '57, as well as Greg Stainer, '76 MD, and Virginia Stainer '74, for putting on spectacular events!
