Our next general meeting is on Tuesday October 27th at 6pm in the Cougar Den

Mock Interview Sign-ups were sent out by Ms. Lewis to all Pre-Pharmacy majors through e-mail. The signup form was also available at last night’s general meeting and will also be available at the PPA social tonight. Only sign up for a mock interview if you are applying to the college of pharmacy for this cycle and only sign up for ONE time slot or your name will be taken off of the list.

Don’t forget you can earn up to 3 points for bringing food or drink items to the PPA Social (6:30pm tonight at the UC Game room). We are giving 1 point per item and all soda items must be Coca-Cola brand.

A summary of last night’s meeting will be posted in the forums.
