As the LSUSD student
representative to the
American Dental Education
Association (ADEA),
fourth-year dental student
Elise Morgan Trahant
attended the Joint Council
Administration Board
Meeting of ADEA in
Washington, D.C. The
meeting included intense
training in making
contacts through "speed
networking" with deans and
faculty from dental
schools around the
country.
Other topics discussed
were how dental education
will be affected by the 20
new dental schools
scheduled to open by the
year 2020, how to engage
more students and alumni
into becoming a dental
faculty member and how to
encourage diversity among
dental schools.
