Texas
student pharmacists competed in a number of events to earn bragging
rights for their school during the 2024 TPA Conference & Expo in Allen, TX.
The team from the Texas Tech University HSC

medications. For the first time, all nine Texas colleges/schools of
pharmacy competed. Also new this year, alumni in the audience showed
their school spirit to give their alma mater a chance to add 100 points
to their final score.
Adam Campos (UT Austin), Hunter Adam

first, second, and third place respectively at the Patient Counseling
Competition.
During the President’s Celebration, The University of Texas
