Pharmacy students, faculty to attend six-day convention

Students and faculty from the School of Pharmacy will be in Chicago today through Wednesday attending the annual American Pharma-aceutical Association convention.
More than 10 KU members of the Academy of Students of Pharmacy, a branch of the national association, will hear lectures and presentations from faculty, independent pharmacists and drug manufacturers from across the country on topics ranging from drug and alcohol abuse in society and professional sports to personnel management.
John Baughman, co-sponsor of the association's KU chapter and clinical instructor of pharmaceutical practice, said that this year's group was one of the largest ever representing KU at the convention.
Nearly all of the largest U.S. drug manufacturers will participate in the convention, he said.
"I'd say the Kansan contingent of professionals would number around 300."
Howard Mossberg, dean of pharmacy, said the convention was an excellent opportunity for students to meet with professionals, including a large contingent from Kansas.
Ruth Carter, Chanute senior and president of the Academy of Students of Pharmacy at KU, said the contact professionals was very informative.
to be exposed to the problems confronting professionals," she said.
"It gives students the opportunity
Baughman also said the association would be especially useful for students once they became practicing professionals.
Carter said that at the convention students helped discuss and set the policies of the national organization.
"It's important for students that they develop some sense of identity with the national organization," he said. "When they are out of school they'll use the organization as a source of information."
KU students also will present a display and distribute information at the convention on drug abuse awareness programs.
Law students may study in London
Law students intrigued by Windsor Castle and Canterbury, pony trekking in Wales or medieval British pubs have the opportunity to satisfy their curiosity.
The KU School of Law, in conjunction with seven other U.S. universities and the American Institute for Fdreign Studies, is offering law students a semester at the University College Law School at the University of London.
The fall semester program, the London Law Consortium, includes at least 12 hours of college credit, guided day trips to British landmarks, including Windsor Castle, Cambridge, Canterbury, Oxford and Brighton, and the opportunity to go camping on horseback in Wales.

Meyer said some students would have the opportunity to clerk with London barristers or solicitors.
Keith Meyer, E.S. and Tom W. Hampton distinguished professor of law, was a faculty member of the program last year. He said the program was a great opportunity for students.
Law students with a grade point average of 2.0 or above are eligible. The program costs about $4,000, which includes accommodations in London, breakfasts, insurance, a subway pass and day trips. Students
also must pay KU tuition, minus the $150 campus privilege fee. Air fare is not included.
"I think it gives students a unique chance to study law in a foreign country," he said. "The credits count the same as credits in residence at KU. They don't have to give up anything in regard to their law education," he said. "They gain."
The program lasts 16 weeks. It begins Aug. 25 in London and ends Dec. 12. Classes are held Monday through Thursday. A one-week break falls in the middle of the semester to give students a chance to travel on their own.
Joanne Halley, third year law student, went on the 1986 program. She will be returning to London in the fall to attend graduate school in law.
"It was a fabulous experience," Halley said. "I just wish more students could go, if they can afford it or even if they can't."
"I think it creates an awareness of how the rest of the world views the United States."
