needing employment and capable of demonstrating their ability to uphold the standards and
requirements of their program while employed. The following regulations will govern such
employment:
1. Upon successful completion of the first semester of the first academic year in the
program, a resident may request permission to work outside the institution.
2. Upon being granted permission to accept employment, the resident is required to present
a typed and signed letter to the Program Director giving the name of the doctor or
organization with whom he/she would be employed, the address and the telephone
number.
3. The employed resident will provide a copy of this policy statement to his/her employer.
4. Residents shall be allowed to work on weekend days only when no lectures or seminars
have been scheduled.

institutional function or event as a result of his or her employment, regardless of when the
function or event may be scheduled.
6. Under no circumstances will a resident contract or undertake any form or type of
specialty practice outside of the Saint Louis University Center for Advanced Dental
Education clinics. By act, association, or implication, it is not appropriate that a resident
hold himself/herself as anything other than a general practitioner.
7. The Board of Directors, as an advisory group to the Executive Director, has the authority
to review the status of the resident at any time and may recommend that the privilege of
outside employment be granted and rescinded. The Executive Director will make the
final decision.
