Known for its unique blend of tradition and progress, the city became the perfect backdrop for a memorable UAG Alumni gathering. At the iconic Café Central, graduates of the Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara reunited not only to reminisce but to strengthen the bonds that continue to connect them long after graduation.

The dinner offered more than just good food and conversation, it was a night where the shared identity of being a UAG graduate came alive. From physicians just starting their medical careers to seasoned leaders shaping healthcare in their communities, every story added to the rich mosaic of the UAG experience.

The evening was guided by the leadership of Erika Aguirre, President of the El Paso Alumni Chapter, whose commitment has nurtured a thriving network in the region. Special guest José Ramos, Alumni Director, joined the celebration, bringing encouragement and a renewed sense of connection between UAG and its graduates in El Paso. Together, they emphasized how alumni chapters are not just about events, but about cultivating opportunities for mentorship, collaboration, and lifelong friendship.

For nearly nine decades, UAG has shaped physicians who carry knowledge, compassion, and vision into every corner of the world. This El Paso gathering was a vivid reminder of that legacy in action living, growing community that thrives wherever our graduates go.

As the night at The Cafe Central came to an end, one thing was clear: the UAG Alumni Family continues to grow stronger with every gathering, every story shared, and every connection made. From Guadalajara to El Paso and beyond, our graduates carry forward the UAG spirit of excellence and humanity.

Because once UAG, always UAG.
