This past weekend, seven SCAPP members proudly represented SDSU at the APhA Annual Conference in Nashville, TN! Throughout the weekend, they engaged in educational sessions, participated in policy discussions, networked with students from across the country (including befriending 10 NDSU students!), and connected with SDSU faculty and alumni over meals. Between exploring downtown Nashville and gaining valuable professional experiences, they also brought home three awards for our chapter —First Runner-Up in our division for the Chapter Achievement Report, along with regional recognition for Operation Heart and OTC Medication Safety.

Thank you APhA-ASP for this amazing opportunity, and we can’t wait to attend again next year in LA!

This week, 22 students traveled to Pierre, South Dakota, for SCAPP’s annual Legislative Days!

On Tuesday night, students had the opportunity to meet with current and former SDPhA leadership over dinner. The next day, they performed health screenings -including blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood cholesterol- for legislators and observed House and Senate committee hearings at the Capitol.

We are incredibly grateful to our preceptors, SDPhA, and the Board of Pharmacy for their support in making this valuable experience possible!

We had a great turnout at the SCCP monthly journal club! Presenters today were P3 students Riley, Colton, and Aron looking at an article comparing efficacy and tolerability of oral antipsychotics used in the acute treatment of schizophrenia. Students were able to learn a lot of information over the topic and obtain great faculty feedback. Big thanks to these gentlemen and hope to see everyone next month!

This past week, we celebrated SCAPP Week! Each day featured a different event to boost member involvement and bonding while showcasing everything SCAPP has to offer. From pie-ing Dr. Reineke in the face on Monday to scavenging through Avera on Wednesday to our first Chapter Meeting on Thursday (with 101 students attending!), and finishing with donuts for professional students on Friday, it was a fun-filled week all around! It was a fantastic start to the semester, and we can’t wait to see what the rest of the year has in store!
