Dear fellow alumni,
For the past 55 years, Tufts Association of Orthodontists (TAO) has provided unwavering support to the orthodontic program and its residents. Each year, TAO provides funding to help offset the costs of the ABO written examination, the graduation dinner, and the evening social and luncheons during interviews. Additionally, we helped fund the audio-visual equipment upgrades for the department. TAO has always been there to help our department in any way it can, but this can only continue with the help and support from the alumni.
I know all of us appreciate our education and time spent at Tufts. Being a skilled orthodontist remains a cherished position, and it enables one to have a wonderful life both professionally and socially. We are proud to announce that TAO has transitioned to new leadership and we would like to thank Dr. Paul Fitzgerald for his years of commitment and service.
Looking ahead to 2020, we have the following goals:
1. Collect annual dues and update membership contact information;
2. Establish a new board of directors;
3. Continue providing support for the department and the residents;
4. Develop a TAO newsletter;
5. Organize social and CE events for the members.
You can help continue the TAO tradition and show your appreciation for the education you received at Tufts by being an active TAO dues member.
Restructured Annual Membership Dues:
Class of 2015 - 2019: $50.00
Graduates prior to 2015: $100.00
We welcome and appreciate any additional contribution beyond your annual membership dues.
Please make checks payable to: Tufts Association of Orthodontists
