Featuring guest speaker, Saara Nasruddin, a current PhD student at the University of Mississippi, to speak on the importance of leadership, advocacy, and breaking the status quo. 

Our healthcare system as well as the profession of pharmacy continues to rapidly evolve throughout the years. It is thanks to the efforts of leaders and advocates that the scope of pharmacy practice is able to expand immensely. Pharmacists not only advocate on behalf of their profession but also on behalf of their patients to ensure that they are given the best care they can possibly receive. However, more needs to be done in order to not only break the general public perception that pharmacists are simply pill counters but also to earn the title, Provider Status. Student advocacy is becoming increasingly significant as student pharmacists are considered to be important contributors to shaping the profession they will be entering.
