College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences
Our organization aims to shed light on the career path of consultant pharmacy (pharmacy for geriatric patients and long-term care patients). We work to educate pharmacy students, pharmacists, and the general community about health issues that geriatric populations experience and how to best serve those populations as pharmacists. We hope to bring awareness to issues that affect geriatric populations and encourage more health professionals to learn about this group of people as they are often overlooked in all parts of our healthcare system.

PhiDE is the pre-medical fraternity on campus. We provide a comfortable space for pre-medical students to learn, ask questions, and connect with others on a similar journey. We provide opportunities to speak with professionals in the field, get mentorship, learn valuable skills for their career, network, and get direction for people who may not know the first thing about medical school and its application process. We also provide a social outlet for those with a rigorous schedule full of medical school prerequisites.
