School of Pharmacy Students Attend Fall Meetings
In October 2022, Pacific University School of Pharmacy students attended the Oregon State Pharmacy Association (OSPA) Annual Convention in downtown Portland. At this event, the students participated in the OTC Self-Care Challenge where they competed against Oregon State University in a competition of Jeopardy. The Pacific University students prevailed and won with a score of 3200-0!
In November 2022, students attended the American Pharmacists Association (APhA) Academy of Student Pharmacists Midyear Regional Meeting in Seattle, WA. This conference included students from various schools in region 7, which consists of Washington State, Montana, Oregon, Idaho, and Utah. This is a student led conference designed exclusively for student pharmacists. At this conference, the APhA-ASP chapter at Pacific University School of Pharmacy won two awards. These were awarded to our Operation Substance Use Disorder and Operation OTC Medicine Safety for their work the previous school year with patient outreach events and activities.
