A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN

Greetings from the ETSU College of Pharmacy!

      It seems like only yesterday that we were welcoming the Inaugural Class to the College of Pharmacy, and now the Admissions Committee is completing the identification of the Class of 2012 ( our third class).  The Classes of 2010 and 2011 are weeks away from being “P3s and P2s.”  I think it is safe to say that most are looking forward to the summer!

      The Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education recently completed an on-site evaluation of the College of Pharmacy.  I will travel to Chicago in June, along with Dr. Wilsie Bishop, Vice President for Health Affairs, to appear before the ACPE Board.  At that time, ETSU will be considered for Candidate Status.  I encourage you to visit the ACPE website for complete information concerning the accreditation process for developing new programs.  Also, if you have any questions related to ETSU’s status, please do not hesitate to contact the College. 

      We continue to recruit additional members of the faculty in both the departments of Pharmacy Practice and Pharmaceutical Sciences.  We are extremely proud of the quality of the individuals who have joined the ETSU program and are eager to add to that number this summer.

      The permanent home of the College of Pharmacy is scheduled to open this summer.  Everyone is very pleased with the quality of our new facilities and very anxious to move into the building.  I think all will agree that the ETSU College of Pharmacy will enjoy a unique environment on the VA Campus, as we will be located adjacent to the College of Medicine and the health sciences library.  We are very proud of the educational environment we will enjoy this fall.

      Please feel free to contact us at any time for information concerning the ETSU program.

Best Wishes!
Larry D. Calhoun, PharmD
