The UNMC community will have several opportunities to view the dedication and ribbon-cutting ceremonies for the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center on Tuesday. They include:
- several viewing screens beneath the vehicle drop-off, on the west side of the Buffett Cancer Center;
- a livestream in the Durham Research Center Auditorium;
- desktops or mobile devices, as the event is being livestreamed.
The event will begin at 2 p.m. on Tuesday and should conclude around 3:15 p.m. Tours of the facility will be available to employees, faculty and students beginning about 30 minutes following the event. The livestream of the Tuesday ceremony will begin a half hour before the event. If you experience technical difficulties, call 402-559-8090.
There will be an open house for the public to tour the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center on Saturday, May 27, from 9 a.m. to noon.
This is just SO exciting for our campus! UNMC and Nebraska Medicine should be very proud of this wonderful Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center. If you didn't see the special on KETV about it you should! Here's the link to that story: http://www.ketv.com/article/chronicle-buffett-cancer-center/9903758. The only unfortunate thing is that with this state of the art building and all of the dignitaries that will be visiting, they have to drive on Emily Street which is in horrible (and frankly, embarrassing) shape!
