The annual faculty served breakfast marked the beginning of a 31
day celebration of the unique contribution the pharmacy profes-
sion brings to health care. With the theme “ Know your pharma-
cist, know your medication” the month of October is a time to
reiterate the benefits of a drug expert on the medical team. UMES
School of Pharmacy and its APhA-ASP chapter has a line up of
activities aimed at showing to our campus and community the
importance of talking to a pharmacist. As the American Pharma-
cists Association puts it, “student pharmacist, you should give
your campus a crash course on the importance of pharmacy”.
