Saluting NYITCOM's Military Matches
Future physicians from New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine's (NYITCOM) Class of 2022 have matched into U.S. military residencies. After medical school, physicians must complete a residency training program and obtain a medical license to practice in the United States and become board certified in a specialty. Medical residencies last three to five years for primary care physicians, with other specialties requiring additional years. While the "civilian" match will take place in March, medical students who have committed to military service for their residency are matched a few months earlier. These future physicians will take the military oath of office at NYITCOM's hooding ceremonies this spring and begin their graduate medical education in conjunction with service to their country. Physicians enlisted in the military deliver healthcare services to military personnel and their families and work in a variety of settings, including hospital ships and international medical centers, among others. Much like civilian doctors, their daily responsibilities include treating patients, diagnosing illness, and prescribing medicine. Military physicians may also participate in international relief and humanitarian efforts, helping to care for the victims of natural disasters and other events requiring medical stability assistance.

Pinning Ceremony Welcomes Nursing Students into the Profession
On May 19, 58 nursing students from New York Institute of Technology's Class of 2021 were welcomed into the profession with a virtual pinning ceremony. Nursing school pinning ceremonies are a rite of passage celebrating the completion of students' training as they graduate and go on to pursue careers as RNs. Despite its virtual nature, the event followed traditional pinning ceremony practices, with the soon-to-be nurses reciting the Nightingale Pledge. Named after Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing, the pledge is a statement of the ethics and principles of the nursing profession. The Class of 2021 also took part in the traditional candlelight ceremony to commemorate Nightingale and her efforts to aid wounded soldiers by candlelight during the Crimean War.
