Winter 2012 - Western University of Health Sciences

Gamma Sigma Chapter
of the Rho Chi Society
By Annie Song, PharmD ’13
What a busy semester it has been! We started off the school
year with the popular I ♥ Rx t-shirt fundraiser at Club Day
and our first general meeting, where everyone got a chance to
catch up and plan events for the year.
At the end of October, Rho Chi helped host Pharmacy
Educator Week, a week of celebrating our educators and
encouraging those who want to go into academia, with
decorations, a faculty panel and a career day booth.
November brought an annual event, the Rho Chi Wine and
Cheese Night where members got a chance to mingle with
alumni and faculty in a social setting.
To finish off the semester, in December the Gamma Sigmas
came together at the holiday luncheon with faculty to
celebrate a busy semester gone by. As the current members on
campus prepare to leave for rotations in January, we look
forward to welcoming our new members soon!
