Postbacc Program Special Interest Group Formed
Jerry Putnam and Larry Sullivan are pleased to announce that NAAHP has formed a Postbacc Program Special Interest Group as a service to our members. Jodi Domsky from Bryn Mawr College has been instrumental in organizing this postbacc group and will serve as its coordinator. The following NAAHP members will serve as the regional representatives:
| Regional Association | Representative |
|---|---|
| CAAHP | Harold Bardo from Southern Illinois University |
| NEAAHP | David Trabilsy from Johns Hopkins University |
| SAAHP | Rob Cannon from University of North Carolina, Greensboro |
| WAAHP | Jodi Olson from Scripps College |
The purpose of this new group is to share information about postbacc programs with advisors and to provide a forum by which postbacc directors can discuss areas of mutual concern. The group will be working with national and regional meeting chairs to determine how to best share information about postbacc programs with meeting attendees. For further information contact Jodi Domsky.
