Hey everyone, this is Devin Ross, the new IT Rep for the 2010-2011 school year. Though presently, progress is frustratingly slow, I hope to implement some major changes to the website before summer's end. My current focus has been an overhaul of the page's graphic design so if you have any photos you feel would be appropriate please don't hesitate to share. Hope everybody is enjoying their summer, I look forward to seeing you in the fall.

28 January 2010 - PDW
PDW run from January 13th to January 17th in Toronto this year, and we did great! We got first place in both the Pharmafacts competition and Patient Interview competition and second place in both the Compounding competition and the Student Literary Challenge.
Most importantly, we all enjoyed the speakers provided during the day and the social events held in the evenings. Thanks goes to the University of Toronto pharmacy student body for organizing and hosting the conference.
See you in Saskatchewan in 2011!

17 August 2008 - "Events Updated"
Hey everyone, this is your new IT Rep, Grant Pidwinski. Sorry for the lack of updates over the summer, the site will definitely be updated more frequently from now on. I updated the events page with everything going on in September so be sure to check those out. That's all for now so I hope everyone enjoys the rest of their summer before we're back to the books.

25 April 2007 - "Year's End"
In all likelihood, this is my last post before passing everything on to Grant Pidwinski for the new school
year, and I begin my duties as 3rd Year Co-Stick. I would like to thank everyone who used this site, and I
hope you found it useful.
Have a great summer, everyone!

4 February 2007 - "Date Changes"
I just updated all of the times for the Events and News pages. You will notice that many are TBD. That
will change as soon as I get the information. Hope everyone enjoyed the Moose game, and be sure to
have a good time at the vitamin presentation.

18 December 2007 - "Home for the Holidays"
Cheers, all! Contrary to popular belief (popular being a relative term, given the number of people who know
about this website), we are back, and we are live! There are a couple events coming up, which I hope to
post as soon as I know more details. By the way, if anyone wants their events listed here, you can send
Woot! Safeway has graciously agreed to continue to sponsor this website.
I hope everyone had a good time at the football game, which we won, by the way.
I know we are all amidst midterms right now, but don't forget to take some time for yourself and your
friends. That means Karaoke Night and maybe some CAPSI competitions. Give 'er!
~ Justin Ling
13 September 2007 - "News and Events"
Right-o. The 'News' and 'Events' pages have been updated, as per what was discussed at the last
council meeting. Remember, 'News' pertains to the faculty, and professional development, and
general education. 'Events' refers to the social events put on by your student council. I encourage
you to read both, and attend whatever you can.

31 August 2007 - "The Starting Line"
So now, with the school year about to begin, it looks like the majority of this website is up and running.
The information has been updated, and is pretty much what I know about the events. If you are new to
Pharmacy, I hope to meet you at the BBQ on September 5th. And to everyone else: welcome back.
I hope everyone has a good year.
NB: September is, by all accounts, the easiest month. So attend a social event or two, or all.

21 June 2007 - "The Black and Gold"
If you have been here before, you may notice that some things have changed. Some things have changed
a fair bit. For instance, moving images confuse me, so I had to take them out. I'm trying to reorganize to
make everything more accessible. Also, if you have any announcements you would like to have posted for
all to see, please let me know.
Cheers.

26 April 2007 - "Progress"
Hey, everyone! This is Justin, your new IT rep for the 2007-2008 year. Hopefully, I'll be able to keep the
website up-to-date. If you have any suggestions, you can reach me at it_rep@umphsa.ca

Special thanks to Chris Tsang for helping me get started. See everyone in September.
