Dr. Wodika
- HLTH 260 is doing several service learning projects this semester (Condom Awareness Week, Women’s Health Discussions, STI Awareness Month, Gender Identity Panel(s), Healthy Body Image Awareness) – and partnering with SPHA would be wonderful! Please contact me for more information!
- The Public Health Scholar Bowl is not far away – we need to begin discussions so we can reserve hotel rooms, etc! Dr. Clark and I also found out the Water Tower Inn is unavailable (close permanently as of now) – so other hotel arrangements will need to be made. We’ll need to research cost-friendly options!
Also there will be an Emergency election for Webmaster, email Ben Peters if you are interested.
