The Pharmacy School also runs smoking cessation clinics and provides students with hands-on experiences in assessing patients’ needs in such areas as diabetes, asthma, immunization, and blood pressure.

“We don’t want clinics for the sake of clinics,” Oppenheimer says. “We want them to be ‘living learning laboratories.’ When students leave the campus at the end of the day, I want them to be thinking not about a grade, but about whether they’ve made a positive intervention during the day that made someone’s life better.”
