Fifty-three students from the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Pharmacy were named to the dean’s list for the 1998 fall semester. To qualify for the dean’s list, students must place in the top 20 percent of their class and maintain a grade point average of 3.5 or above.
UNMC’s College of Pharmacy is one of the first colleges in the nation to offer the doctorate of pharmacy degree. Currently through a grant, the college is reducing distance barriers in Nebraska’s rural areas by making available computerized health information networks that link rural pharmacies with UNMC’s computerized drug and health information system.
