For four UAG School of Medicine alumni, a return to campus offered a chance to revisit familiar places, reflect on their medical education, and reconnect with the institution that remains part of their stories.
Some places stay with you long after you leave them. They become part of the way you remember your beginnings, the challenges that shaped you, and the person you were becoming before you fully understood where the journey would lead. For four UAG School of Medicine alumni, returning to their alma mater was an opportunity to experience that connection firsthand.
Dr. Miso Miloslavic (Class of 1994), Dr. Rene Aillon (Class of 1994), Dr. Luis Alberto Mateo Jimenez (Class of 1994), and Dr. Kenneth Rivera (Class of 1996) recently revisited the UAG campus, walking through spaces that once formed part of their lives as medical students. Their visit brought them back to familiar surroundings, including the library and the CSD Lab, offering a new perspective on places they remember from their time at UAG.
Familiar Places, New Perspectives
A campus can change over time, but returning to it can bring the past into focus in unexpected ways. Spaces that once belonged to the routine of student life can take on a different meaning years later, viewed through the experiences and perspective that come with a career in medicine. For these alumni, revisiting the library and the CSD Training Center created an opportunity to reflect on their time at UAG and see the campus through the eyes of the physicians they have since become.
A Connection That Continues Beyond Graduation
The return of alumni is a reminder that the relationship between a medical school and its graduates does not end when students leave campus. Their continued connection to UAG brings different generations of the medical community together, linking the experiences of former students with the aspirations of those who are just beginning their own journeys.
For current students and those considering UAG, these visits offer something meaningful: a chance to see the university not only as the place where a medical education begins, but also as a place that remains part of a physician's personal history.
Dr. Miloslavic, Dr. Aillon, Dr. Mateo Jimenez, and Dr. Rivera each began their journeys at UAG decades ago. Their return brought those beginnings back into view, reconnecting them with the campus and the memories formed there.
Your journey to medicine starts somewhere. At UAG, it can become a story you carry with you long after graduation.
