Just received official approval from the administration to start our ADEA chapter. A
membership drive and activities are in the works. We are very excited to have ADEA
chapter as an addition to our other great clubs and organizations.
SB is sending two delegates to the Council of Students, Residents, and Fellows. It
will be the first ADEA meeting second year.
SB organized a successful charity drive for NANA's House - a local orphanage and
transitional housing facility. We collected donated food, money, and Halloween
costumes for less fortunate families served by the organization.
We are having our Annual Halloween Party tonight. We are excited to carry on this
tradition and it is one of the school's largest and most attended events of the year.
We just had a very successful and well attended Happy Hour with our friends and
faculty from the Suffolk County Dental society. It was a night of fun, networking,
and learning about what is going on in organized dentistry.
