Herbert Lieberman (PhD 1955) and
his wife, Helen, were inadvertently omitted
from the “Donor Honor Roll” in the last
issue of The Purdue Pharmacist (Fall &
Winter 2010; Volume 86, Issue 2). The
College apologizes for this oversight and
extends its gratitude to the Liebermans
for their continued support.
While attending the ASHP Midyear
meeting, (shown left to right)
MONICA RANDOLPH, MINKEY
WUNGWATTANA, ELENA
COPPOL, AND JAMIE SHELLY
(ALL PHARMD 2011) thought it
would be fun to attend the television
game show “Let’s Make a Deal.”
Monica and Elena were actually
picked to play for a prize and had
the opportunity to stand next to
show host Wayne Brady, who gave
a shout-out to Purdue. The episode
aired on April 14, 2011 on CBS.
