Challenges

    Graduating enough health care providers for our communities Filling critical and hard to recruit open faculty positions (e.g., Chair in OT) Competing salary-wise with non-academic settings Clinical site restrictions especially in specialty areas such as pediatrics, OB-GYN and psychiatrics 17

Challenges

  Equitable funding model for sustaining Cooperative Pharmacy Program.

Providing sufficient support infrastructure for complex activities:  College admissions of area 900 per year    Affiliation Agreements Student health requirements – e.g., TB tests Criminal background checks 18

Challenges

 High-level support   Concerns of ADs (in general): too much paper; lack of clarity on title, role, appointment, job duties, stipend; desire to be involved in higher order initiatives.

Current productive ADs are based more on personal commitment to the Dean rather than benefits of being an AD.
