Internal and External Program Reviews
External review will occur around Sept 26.
Reviewers will be:
Debora Carson-Ohio State University

Alumni
New Alumni Highlight is now on the website. Suggestion was made to do a PR piece on the
3 students that are part of the Army.
Some suggestions were made on how to keep in touch with Alumni
1) Send a survey to them once they are one year out of the program.
2) Create RHB Alumni Facebook page
3) Ask Alumni to join Google Scholar or create a personal PubMed page to easily
access publications.
4) Advertise the RHB blog more
