Welcometo the 50th offering of the annual Southwestern clinical pharmacy sminar. We hope that the weekend will provide and opportunity for great educational activities as well as quality time with old friends and colleagues.

Asa a 1984 graduate of the University of Arizona College of Pharmacy, I was thrilled to return last August in my new role as Dean. The partnership between the College of Pharmacy and the Arizona Pharmacy Association is important in many ways and we are excited to provide this longstanding program as support. We also thank those who are joining us for the first time. Our goal is to blend tradition with new opportunities and we are confident that all attendees will continue to find value in the programming and occasions to network with other professionals.

Since this is a milestone year for the program, I would like to acknowledge that 50 years ago Henry W. Winship III, Ph.D. provided direction and leadership in the establishment and subsequent continuation of this seminar. Hank Winship received a pharmacy degree from the college in 1961 and had the misfortune to pass away in 1977. I know that some of you knew Dr. Winship and may have attended one of the early seminars. We recently received a call from a 1968 alum sharing that he attended the very first offering held at the Arizona Inn in Tucson. This weekend let’s remember Dr. Winship and the leadership that led to comradery and education one weekend each year for the past 50 years.

Please connect with us and join the conversation during the seminar on social media. Use #SWClinical in your social posts about this great event.

Enjoy the seminar!

Sincerely,

Rick G. Schnellmann, Ph.D.
