Honoring Our Golden Gators
A Legacy 50 Years in the Making
Whether it has been five years or 50 since you walked the halls of the Dental Sciences Building, your journey is part of our history. We are offering special recognition for all alumni celebrating milestone anniversaries (years ending in 1 and 6). Not a milestone year? No problem! Every alum is a vital part of the Gator Dentist Nation. We want to see every class represented as we celebrate our past and look toward the future.
