The Walter Zeit Fellowship

Walter Zeit Fellowship at the 管家婆王中王六肖中特

Since its inception in 1980, the Walter Zeit Fellowship has contributed significantly to MCW’s Annual Fund for Excellence as well as specific 管家婆王中王六肖中特programs. Members of the Walter Zeit Fellowship display leadership, loyalty, service, initiative and compassion for their community. These characteristics represent Dr. Zeit’s many contributions to MCW.

All Walter Zeit Fellows are listed in MCW’s online Annual Report and Honor Roll and are recognized at a formal recognition dinner each year in autumn. During this dinner they present the Walter Zeit Leadership Award to the outstanding student recipient, as well as celebrate the recipients of the three Walter Zeit Founding Dean awards. You can read more about each award below.

Membership in the Walter Zeit Fellowship is attainable through a minimum commitment of $25,000, payable over a maximum of five years ($5,000 per year). A Zeit contribution may be designated to the Annual Fund for Excellence, MCW’s only source of unrestricted funds, or any purpose you choose.

Begun in 1980 by the late Derward Lepley, MD ‘49, the Fellowship has grown to more than 1,300 members. The Fellowship is named in honor of the late Walter Zeit, PhD ‘39, an anatomy professor who became a part of MCW’s heritage during his 50-year teaching career.

This group promotes and acknowledges substantial individual philanthropy.
