  • Skaggs/Scaggs/Skeggs
    ..., I 11-69 I SKAGGS/SCAGGS/SKEGGS No attempt has been made here to establish the earliest colonial generations of this Skaggs family. Many early Skaggs lineages constructed by researchers contain inconsistencies and are missing documentation. In an attempt to match up what has been written historically with what can be factually proven there appears to be some mixing of Skaggs families and/or generations. The research presented in "Skaggs," from Early Adventures on the Western Waters by Mary B. Kegley and F. B. Kegley is factual and falls short of claiming actual familial relationships. [See extract later in this compilation.] 1 A great deal has been written about the Skaggs families and about their exploits as Long Hunters and the enormous contributions they made in opening up the trans-Appalachian areas of Kentucky and Tennessee. 2 Combining the multitude of references to these early Skaggs individuals into cohesive family units is a daunting task. The challenge is complicated by the repetitiveness of given names coupled with the lack of records resulting from the primitive nature of the wilderness in which they lived. For example in the same area of early Virginia are found references to James Skaggs, James Skaggs, Sr., James Skaggs, Jr., James (Longman) Skaggs and Little James Skaggs. 3 Besides being Long Hunters some of the Skaggs men were Baptist preachers dedicated to establishing churches and bringing the word of God into the remote wilderness settlements. 4 There are few records of births or marriages among the early Skaggs families. 5 It may be that the ministers among them conducted the ceremonies and either failed to record the events or their records did not survive.

  • White Coat Ceremony Class of 2010
    Fall 2006 White Coat Ceremony Class of 2010 Sixty future pharmacists and pharmaceutical industry researchers were welcomed to the profession at the White Coat Ceremony for the Class of 2010 of the Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences. The ceremony, held on Friday, September 29, was the premiere event in the new UCSD Health Sciences Educational Center Auditorium, located directly adjacent to the Pharmaceutical Sciences building that was dedicated in spring 2006. The incoming students were selected from more than 1,000 applicants. The class comprises 49 women and 11 men, ages 22 to 34; seven from out-of- state universities and 53 who earned Class of 2010 their undergraduate degree from a California institution. This is the School’s fifth class since its opening.

Chancellor Marye Anne Fox and David Bailey, interim Vice Chancellor for Health Sciences, also addressed the students, their family members and friends. Faculty member Thomas Tozer, Pharm.D., Ph.D., was keynote speaker for the evening. Tozer, who is co-editor of the leading textbook in pharmacokinetics entitled Clinical Pharmacokinetics: Concepts and Applications, jokingly reminded the students that this was one book they’d need to learn cover to cover – and ended by saying he would see them in class on Monday.

  • Merchants Go to Market
    CHAPTER 10 Merchants Go to Market November 2009 Mary A. O’Sullivan The Wharton School University of Pennsylvania 1. INTRODUCTION The period from the late nineteenth century through the beginning of the Depression was one of dramatic change in America’s retail industry. In 1885, mass retailers – department stores, mail order firms, and chains ‐‐ were of limited importance as a share of retail sales but, by 1930, they had emerged as the most powerful players in a sector that itself had grown much larger. Traditional retailers persisted, of course, even if they accounted for a decreasing share of the retail industry, but they too made important changes in how they did business, partly in reaction to competition from mass retailers, but also in response to broader changes in their environment. Overall, this was a period of great change in American retailing even if there is debate about the economic benefits of some of the developments that occurred. Retailers were rather late arrivals on the nation’s securities markets, making an appearance only in 1901 when department stores issued securities to the public for the first time. The early issuers were department stores in pursuit of consolidation and recapitalisation. However, in the mid‐teens, major financial problems at some of the leading players soured the markets’ appetite for department store securities. Other mass retailers issued securities, in some cases to raise growth finance and in others for recapitalisation and consolidation. Overall, however, securities issues played a rather limited role in the development of the U.S. retail industry through the end of the First World War.

    UC San Diego Skaggs School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences Newsletter FALL 2019 Pharmacy Board Results are OUT! Congrats SSPPS Class of 2019! Pharmacy board exam results are out! Congratulations to the UC San Diego Skaggs School of Pharmacy’s PharmD Class of 2019 for continuing SSPPS’s excellent performance: SSPPS scored the highest out of all California schools on both the NAPLEX (100%) and CPJE (tied with Western)! Our alumni are exceptionally well trained and educated as they enter their career into the pharmacy profession. Congratulations on yet another successful year! The NAPLEX, or North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination, measures a candidate’s knowledge of the practice of pharmacy. It is just one component of the licensure process and is used by the boards of pharmacy as part of their assessment of a candidate’s competence to practice as a pharmacist. The CPJE, or California Practice Standards and Jurisprudence Examination for Pharmacists, is an additional examination that the state of California requires for pharmacist licensure and is used within the state to ensure candidates have a strong understanding and knowledge of pharmaceutical law. SSPPS 2019 Fall Newsletter | 1 A Message from the Dean – James H. McKerrow, PhD, MD I have just had my second lunch with students of our P1 Class. I am again very impressed with how motivated and engaged they are in the diverse aspects of pharmacy education, and the high quality of their undergraduate experience. Our former faculty member, Dr. Sarah McBane, gave the welcoming speech at the White Coat Ceremony for our incoming P1 class. She helped them focus on both their upcoming pharmacy education, and their future career goals.
