In honor of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Marquette University School of Medicine (MUSM), the Medical College of Wisconsin is running a series of stories and hosting various events the week of Jan. 14-18.

The Marquette University School of Medicine was formed on Jan. 14, 1913, and, in 1970, became the Medical College of Wisconsin. Additional information on the history of the MUSM will be presented later this week along with photos of yearbooks, art work and other artifacts from the MUSM that are currently housed in the MCW Todd Wehr Library or the College’s archives. Library staff also will showcase some of these artifacts in the cafeteria lobby during the cake celebration on Jan. 14 and throughout the week in their permanent display case outside the Todd Wehr Library.

All faculty, staff and students are invited to stop by for a piece of cake to commemorate this important milestone in MCW’s history.
