To the Graduating Class of 2017: Mattiacci, DPM This year marks the fifty-first commencement ceremony of our school. It is with a sense of pleasure that I write this IctteT to the Class of 2017. Each of you has just completed the most challenging four years of your lives and I take pride in congratulating you. More than that, however. I want to tell you that you are the Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine. While it is true that we have clinics, laboratories, classrooms and dormitories, a school without the vibrant energy of the student is a building whose purpose has disappeared. You arrived at TUSPM at a time of evolution. You have seen new faculty, upgrading of facilities and the progress that being a part of Temple’s Health Sciences affords. During the past four years, this was your school, but in a larger sense, you became the school. As you begin post graduate training and leave us here in Philadelphia, you take the school with you. You will forever be identified as a Temple University graduate TUSPM and you will always be connected. We have given you the finest education in the nation. We have given you clinical experience that is unequalcd in our profession and we have given you the degree of Doctor of Podiatric Medicine. Now it is your turn. Because you will always be a TUSPM graduate, we look to you to carry that degree with competence, compassion, and success. You now enter a career in which your patient and his or her condition will demand your expertise. As you enter practice and develop roots in the community that you choose. I ask that you never forget the roots that you leave here at TUSPM. You have earned the right to wear the degree that we have bestowed upon you with pride. I challenge you to use that degree to the benefit of both your practice and your alma matter as those who have gone before you have done. I want you to become active with your alumni association and maintain connection with your classmates. Your alumni peers have generously endowed scholarships for the benefit of TUSPM students and have given of their financial resources for the continual upgrading of TUSPM. I want you to come back to Philadelphia to visit us periodically and I want you to visit us on the web consistently. Wherever you go in your life, you take our name and you remain our graduate. Never forget that, because wc will never forget you and the time that you have spent here. Go now and apply those skills that you gained here. Be diligent. Be tenacious. Be inquisitive and be successful. You ore now a permanent part of the Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine. 6 ASSOCIATE DEAN FOR ACADEMIC AFFAIRS School of Podiatnc Medicine TEMPtE UNIVERSITY Aei wi.

Many of you have had to overcome both personal challenges to get to this point I congratulate you and I wish you personal and professional success in the future. When you came to TUSPM you joined a profession that is still evolving and maturing. Even over the course of my own professional lifetime there have been dramatic changes. In order to continue to advance the profession, each and every one of you must be personally involved with helping it grow. Certainly the most important way to do that is to make each and every patient encounter a successful one where you deliver the best possible care In a caring and compassionate way. In addition there are other ways that you can contribute to the profession: research, education, and political leadership are just a few of the different ways that together we can advance the profession. For me, this has been a wonderful place to receive my own education and a wonderful place to have the opportunity to teach you. The profession provides outstanding opportunities for each and every one of you that you can seize with hard work and dedication. Again, congratulations on your success and good luck In your future endeavors.

Have compassion, it's not always easy, but there is always someone who has it worse than you. 3. Never stop learning; to be truly successful you should learn something new every day and always want to better who you are. 4.

ANSELMO Moosic, PA Utah Valley University B.S., Business Management As my 22 years of formal education have finally come to a close. 1 cannot help but think of those whose guidance and support have made it possible for me to achieve the title of doctor: My mom who gave birth to me when she was a sophomore In high school and had ever)' excuse for me to turn out to be a complete loser. We went through some hard times for sure, but through it all she always took time to read to me and teach me that the pursuit of knowledge and a good education were the only ways for me to improve my situation in life. My Aunt Cathy and Uncle Stan who were always there to support me in my education and always gave me great expectations to live up to and lofty goals to pursue. My collogues from the class of 2017 where were there to trade notes and study strategies. Team effort all the way!!!! Most of all. My wife Liz. When we started dating my main focus in life was playing rugby and chasing girls. Your academic excellence and dedication has always been an inspiration to me.
