Applause and cheers go up when medical students find out where they will train as residents following graduation. The class of 164 students will be going to 26 different states.
As Match Day ends, it"s time for toasts and celebration. This class of students was recruited while the School of Medicine was in Houston because of Hurricane Katrina.
