During this time, generations of pharmacists have come to what is now Idaho State University to learn the discipline of pharmacy. Our faculty and staf continue to be dedicated to preparing future pharmacists who are capable of carrying this noble profession into the future. I have had the privilege of being on faculty here for nearly 30 years and the Dean of the College of Pharmacy since 2009. I am very honored and excited to announce that we are ofcially in the public phase of our frst ever capital campaign. Tis $15 million campaign is part of our Centennial Celebration which will take place in the fall of 2020. As Idaho’s—and now Alaska’s—College of Pharmacy we will focus on increasing scholarships along with capital and program needs to provide the best teaching and learning environments for our faculty and students. When I get the opportunity to meet with our alumni, there is one common thread that is repeated time and again, “I owe my quality of life and career success to the ISU College of Pharmacy.” Although I am not a graduate of ISU, I can say without hesitation that I too owe my quality of life and career success to the college. I have decided to “pay it forward” to the next generation of faculty, staf, students and even deans by creating the Cady Family Endowment. In addition, I have created a planned gif to this endowment. I do hope that this planned gif does not mature anytime soon. I am asking you to join me and “pay it forward” by also giving back to the college during our Centennial Campaign.
