Seattle Times Pictures of the Year 2010

March 19: University of Washington medical student Elizabeth Zeeck holds up Lili Peacock-Villada's "Match Day" letter to see if she received the residency she wanted in Boston. Heightening the tension was that Peacock-Villada's husband, Kyle Chambers, left rear, was still waiting for his letter. They couldn't see through the envelope and waited until Chambers got his envelope before opening them. All three got their choices of medical residencies. They were with other graduating UW medical students, their families and friends in the Magnuson Health Sciences Center as part of the National Resident Matching Program.
