As a P2 I have found it very vital to be involved. Whether you’re an active member in an organization, hold a leadership position, or sit on the Honor Council. For me I feel that you can really make the most of your experience in school if you are a student that is involved.
During my P1 year I joined a couple of organizations that I found interesting. At the end of the year I chose which organization I felt most passionate about and chose to run for office. I was elected Publicist for NCPA for the 2014-2015 school year and have truly enjoyed my time on the Executive Board planning fundraisers, community service opportunities, and just helping make decisions for the future of our organization. I also chose to get involved as an Ambassador and the Honor Council during my P1 year and have really enjoyed it thus far. Being an ambassador allows you to be a face for the school and represent what we are all about.
Getting involved is all about what you make it. As pharmacy school is already busy as it is, it is important to set boundaries for how involved you want to be and to not over commit yourself. I highly encourage you to get involved during your time at PCSP because I can assure you that you won’t regret it!
