Tricia Mathew MD ’20, a resident physician at Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center, writes: “My big news besides matching in Illinois is that my wedding is postponed to 2021. My favorite memories of medical school include: studying in the annex and finding one of the rooms locked off because of a leaking ceiling; Dr. Inglis’ female reproductive system costume; flood in G26; Dr. Jacobsen’s workout classes in the atrium;, moving to a brand new medical school and finding out that the speaker system needed to be replaced; Dr. Dlugos’ hemipelvis cart; Dr. Sheehan’s dog, Mango, visiting; changing for anatomy in the hallway outside of the brain museum; Dr. Cotter’s review sessions; all the Franco's pizzas; Drs. Milling, Lesse and Jacobsen lip syncing for Follies.”
