The UNMC community is invited to an all-campus reception Monday, June 24, to celebrate the tenure of UNMC Chancellor Jeffrey P. Gold, MD, and reflect on his 10 years of leadership.
Dr. Gold will begin his new role as University of Nebraska System President on July 1, pending approval of his employment contract Thursday by the NU Board of Regents. Dr. Gold has served as UNMC chancellor since February 2014.
Monday’s all-campus reception will be from 2-4 p.m. in the Sorrell Center’s Truhlsen Events Center. A brief program will begin at 3 p.m. For those unable to attend the program, a Zoom link soon will be added to the campus calendar at this link.
The reception’s theme — “From Excellence to Eminence: Celebrating 10 Years at UNMC” — reflects the message he shared with the campus community and public in his 2014 investiture speech. Read some of the many med center accomplishments under Dr. Gold’s leadership.
UNMC faculty, staff and students are invited to use this form to share thoughts, wishes and memories with Dr. Gold. The comments will be shared with him when he begins his new role on July 1.
Congratulations Dr. Gold!
Dr. Gold: Carol Burnett famously closed her weekly TV variety show with a song that seems especially fitting on my third anniversary with UNMC Strategic Communications. “I’m so glad we had this time together/Just to have a laugh or sing a song/Seems we just get started/And before you know it/Comes the time we have to say/So long.” It’s been a pleasure. Best wishes as you transition from Wittson to Varner Hall!
