"More than faculty I saw them as friends. If they see you in the hall, they greet you and sometimes they stop and talk with you about any topic, or if you need help with something they take their time to help you."

Alexis Ruiz, PharmD '25

“The relationship between faculty members and students is incredible. You can tell the faculty are trying to do what’s best for you. They make themselves very approachable.”

Yayleene Lozado, PharmD '25

“My interactions with professors have been a good experience. They were always available in office hours and they were always willing to help. I felt comfortable the whole time when speaking with them and they treat every student with respect.”

Tania Gonzalez, PharmD '23

"We got a lot of one-on-one time with the professors and we really built a special bond. I definitely loved how small it was. We knew everyone. I really loved that experience.”

James Lindsay, PharmD '14, MPH

"Dr. Tovar really took the time to listen to all my concerns and questions every single day and answer them in detail and in different ways for me to understand.”

Lauren Callaway, PharmD '26

"The program faculty have consistently been the standout feature of the pharmacy program, thanks to their extensive knowledge and friendly demeanor. This supportive environment has significantly enhanced my learning experience."

Solomon Agyemang, PharmD ‘26

“The pharmacy department here has amazing professors who go above and beyond to prepare us for what's to come. Our professors never hesitate to drop by and help us with anything we’re struggling with.”

Patrice Jamison, PharmD '26

“The faculty of this program is invested in your success more than you are. Professors will meet with you every day if that's what it takes for you to understand the material. If you give them your time and effort, they will double it in return.”

Ashley Hardebeck (PharmD '29)

“My interactions with program faculty have been very genuine and supportive. There’s been a clear effort from some faculty members to understand what students are going through personally and how that may be impacting us academically, rather than just focusing on performance alone.”

Charday Norris, PharmD ‘26
