On behalf of the Rho Chi Honor Society Beta Delta Chapter, it is with immense pleasure that I present to you our monthly newsletter publication, Rho Chi Post. The Rho Chi Honor Society, which is the only national pharmacy honor society of its kind, works to create and recognize lifelong intellectual leaders in pharmacy. The society aims to instill the desire to pursue intellectual excellence and critical inquiry to advance the profession. Rho Chi Post is aimed at serving as a method for achieving this ultimate goal.

I welcome you, our pharmacy community at St. John‟s University, to experience a one of a kind monthly newsletter that will serve as a source of information and knowledge to broaden you perspectives beyond the classroom: Rho Chi Post.

Rho Chi Post will provide you with up-to-date information on local events, current pharmacy news (including but not limited to new drug shortages, medication, clinical studies, and reported adverse effects), individualized interviews with faculty and students, crossword puzzles, letters to the editors, polls, and much more. Rho Chi Post will also serve as an excellent platform for professional dialogue between students and faculty members. Simply, there are endless benefits for our readers.

Our current editorial team consists of devoted students and faculty, all who are fueled by a passion to serve their profession and a drive to make our readers become the leaders of tomorrow. I encourage you to enthusiastically read and to feel free to contact us for any further information.

You can email us at rhochis@gmail.com or visit our chapter website at http://www.rhochistj.org. Of note, our Letters to the Editor section allow readers to voice their opinions and bring up pertinent issues!

Lastly, we aim to publish and distribute Rho Chi Post during the first week of every month. We will also maintain an archive for all of our publications on our website.

Thank you for your time, and keep reading!

Mohamed Dungersi
President of the Rho Chi Honor Society Beta Delta Chapter
