## Resource

Texas Tech’s incoming Class of 2030 just stepped into their white coats — a powerful symbol of their medical journey beginning. At the White Coat Ceremony, 182 diverse students from 44 colleges across the nation took a solemn pledge to uphold the highest standards of medicine. Dean John DeToledo reminded them this is just the start of a demanding, noble path — one that calls for dedication, compassion, and lifelong learning. This rite of passage marks not just entry into medical school, but the official dawn of their mission to heal. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
