The UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy will present a talk on Saturday, February 11, by third-year doctor of pharmacy student David R. Steeb about how students can make their mark at the School by transforming their ideas into realties.

The talk is part of the LEADership Academy presented by the School's Office of Recruitment Development and Diversity Initiatives. The LEADership Academy, an extension of the LEAD Program, offers prospective pharmacy students an intensive mentoring and preparatory experience once a month. Participants get an opportunity to network and develop strong professional relationships with faculty and students from the School.

Steeb received his BS in chemistry and biology from the University of Miami. Over the past two years, he has been involved in several initiatives at the School, including the creation of the PharmD/MBA dual degree program and the reactivation of Phi Delta Chi, a professional pharmaceutical fraternity. Steeb currently serves as the national president-elect of the American Pharmacists Association Academy of Student Pharmacists and chair of the APhA-ASP Awards Standing Committee. He was the 2010 APhA Carl Emswiller Summer Intern in Association Management and is a member of Phi Lambda Sigma, Rho Chi, and Phi Delta Chi.

The presentation will be held from 9:00 a.m. to noon in Kerr Hall, room 1001.
