A person’s character and success can be a reflection of his or her family culture and tradition, which is enhanced or supplemented by education. While “knowledge is power” it is one’s “attitude not aptitude that determines one’s altitude” or “how far” one will go in life. One letter can make a difference as individuals pursue their careers and positions. In the UMES “Pharmily” academic environment, we are proud to cultivate a culture of respectful attitude and community service beyond education for diverse patients and populations. Our students who are future alumni and professional citizens in a variety of communities contributed thousands of service-learning hours within
