First-year medical students celebrated with their families and friends at the Founders’ Day reception, sponsored by the Feinberg Medical Alumni Association. The incoming class of 2026 was officially welcomed to Feinberg during Founders’ Day on August 7 at Fourth Presbyterian Church in Chicago. “Founders’ Day is the first step to actually start working with our community.” Eric G. Neilson, MD, vice president for Medical Affairs and Lewis Landsberg Dean, welcomes students, faculty and guests to the Founders’ Day ceremony. He noted that Founders’ Day, a tradition dating back to 1922, serves as both a celebration of the school’s history and a look toward the future.
