Pharmacy by the Lambda Kappa Sigma pharmacy fraternity, Panthers show off their chops in events like compounding and immunization darts. The pageant is one of two signature events for LKS, which is dedicated to elevating women in pharmacy. Congratulations to Ms. Pharmacy Lydia Hilaab, wearing her crown above.

Black History Month Spotlight: Dr. James McCune Smith, Physician and Pharmacist

James McCune Smith was born in Manhattan to an enslaved woman on April 18, 1813. He was born an indentured servant because the New York State Gradual Emancipation Act of 1799 stated people born to slave women after July 4, 1799, would be free, indentured servants to the master of their mother until adulthood. He was later freed from this servitude on July 4, 1827, at age 14, by New York's Emancipation Act.

Kaitlyn (Strumski) Rehberg '23 and Nicholas Rehberg '20 at the Rehberg family farm in Cobleskill

From Pharmacy Students to 鈥楩armacists鈥�

Given that Kaitlyn and Nicholas Rehberg met at 91福利, you might assume their initial connection was pharmacy. After all, when they met in Fall 2019, Kaitlyn (then Strumski) was a sophomore majoring in pharmaceutical sciences and Nicholas was in his last year of the pharmacy doctoral program. Turns out, though, they were not smitten so much by a shared interest in pharm life, but in farm life. Or perhaps it was a combination of those things 鈥� an unlikely coupling of passions that neither expected to find in another.
