On May 8, dozens of dignitaries from Weill Cornell Medical College, Cornell University in Ithaca, and academic institutions throughout the Middle East will join 15 future doctors and their families on the campus of Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar for the institution's inaugural commencement exercises. To celebrate this historic event,
Weill Cornell Medicine will feature extensive coverage of the Qatar graduation in its summer 2008 issue. In the meantime, the Class of 2008 poses for a photo before donning their Cornell red caps and gowns to receive the very first M.D. degrees ever granted overseas by an American university. For more on the commencement festivities, revisit
