This is a fund-raiser for our student association that also allows you to sport your school spirit! $20 for students, $25 for faculty, staff and alumni. We have sizes M-2XL, but some sizes are going fast. We also will be ordering smalls, so chime in if that’s what you need. Let claudine.martin@unmc.edu know if you’re interested!  (We can figure out shipping even, if you’re a distance student!)

Each team’s portfolio of photos will be published on this blog,  Look through ALL of the teams and pick the set that you think are the most creative, strongest, illustrative examples of public health. Then, using your UNMC.edu email, send an email to claudine.martin@unmc.edu with the team name as your subject line (“Team Purple” or “Team Plague,” etc).  One vote per email address until midnight on Thursday, April 4.  The winning team will be announced during PHamily PHeud on Friday, April 5 from 11:30 am from 1:00 pm in MCPH 3013.
