Alumni Relations and Development

Hi everyone¬ - I hope your 2020 has gotten off to a stellar start. Can you believe that we are now in our 100th year of educating pharmacists, preparing them to practice throughout the state, the region, the nation and around the globe? The careers of our alumni have taken many different paths. Many pursued a career in community pharmacy, others took the route towards working in hospitals and health care facilities. Still others followed a career working in academia and industry. In addition to this diversity, our graduates have gone on to practice their profession in all 50 states and eight different countries. This is quite the accomplishment! As we go through our 100th year, we want to express our appreciation to our alumni and friends who supported the College and our Centennial Campaign during the past year. The donors will be recognized in our College of Pharmacy Honor Roll of Donors section. We will also provide updates on our $15 million Centennial Campaign, the agenda of our September 11 and 12, 2020 Centennial Celebration including how you can participate in providing contents for our Time Capsule. We also have some other great stories about alumni activities, and don’t miss the information on how you can obtain College of Pharmacy apparel. As I meet with alumni during my travels, a very common comment is that our graduates not only earned their pharmacy degrees but the College also prepared our graduates for career success. Many of you have been part of this success, through your involvement and contributions. We really need your help for us to meet and exceed our Campaign goal. I look forward to meeting with you and discussing your interest in supporting our campaign. Of course, I won’t be able to reach everyone so please feel free to contact me at yankphil@isu.edu or (208) 39-4770. If I don’t get an opportunity to meet you in the coming months we sure look forward to seeing you at the Centennial Celebration on September 11 and 12, 2020.

Kindest Regards,

Phil Yankovich Director of Development and Alumni Relations
