OT: FIU opens medical school on Monday
FIU opens medical school on Monday
Quote:For Maidique, 69, Monday will be a day of goodbyes and plaques. Starting at 3 p.m., the school will host a two-hour tribute at the school's U.S. Century Bank Arena. Miami-Dade County Commissioner Joe Martinez will present Maidique with an award for his decades of service.
Maidique is Florida's longest-serving state university president. Under his watch, FIU has grown to almost 40,000 students and has opened the College of Law, College of Engineering, School of Architecture and now the College of Medicine, and has fielded a Division 1A football team.

I wanted to see the ceremony, but they wouldn't let students in :/... quite a bummer. A new era at FIU has begun today!
