At UTSW, we wear pink (and purple)

Each October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and the Employee Advisory Council wanted to recognize our cancer teams and patients with a fun request – wear pink socks and share them with all of us! Some of our favorite submissions are below.

Now, we're shifting to purple.

November is Epilepsy Awareness Month and UTSW's Neurodiagnostics team in partnership with the Employee Advisory Council (EAP) are encouraging people to talk about epilepsy and remind those who live with seizures they are not alone. From Nov. 14-20, wear purple socks (the wackier the better) and email your photos to EAC@utsouthwestern.edu.

The EAC will share the best of them with the whole UTSW community!

Take some inspiration from our pink sock party:
