"Skin Diseases Depicted in the Cinema" is Ready for the Next Hurricane!
Our dermatology senior BSHS selective (DERU-4051) and elective (DERU-4007) have been improved so that in the event of another hurricane in Galveston, these courses will not be disrupted. Instead of using the dermatology conference room in the McCullough building on the UTMB campus in Galveston, the course will be relocated in the new dermatology conference room located at the dermatology clinic in the Bay Colony Town Center, League City, TX. In the event of another Galveston hurricane, students will be welcome to join Dr. Wagner in League City or teleconference with the class from any location. Dr. Wagner plans on contacting enrolled students via email with class details in the event of another hurricane. In the aftermath of another hurricane, enrollment restrictions are typically dropped and Dr. Wagner will permit over enrollment to accommodate students needing BSHS graduation or elective credit. This registration process is usually accomplished through email following a hurricane.
