Chicago!
This week our students have enjoyed the annual tradition of traveling to Chicago to attend the American College of Healthcare Executives' (ACHE) Congress on Healthcare Leadership as well as the Trinity University Health Care Administration Department Alumni Association's Dean Duce Award Dinner, which this year recognized distinguished alumnus Bruce Lawrence ('82), President and CEO of INTEGRIS Health. This cherished ritual offers first-year students a critical experience during the program, through which they are afforded opportunities to bond with classmates, to engage in and learn from ACHE's professional community of healthcare executives, to connect with and celebrate Trinity HCAD alumni, to prepare for Preceptor's Conference with mock interviews, and to experience the city of Chicago. Current student Camille Fagan put together this great account of her time in Chicago:
Earlier this week, all 23 first year on-campus program students attended the American College of Healthcare Executives 2017 Congress on Healthcare Leadership. The entire Trinity HCAD faculty joined them in Chicago for the conference. With more than 150 education and networking sessions to choose from, students were busy meeting with healthcare professionals and students from other graduate programs. Students also enjoyed meeting past Trinity HCAD graduates during alumni happy hour and dinner events. Connections created at these events will hopefully turn into potential residency opportunities come Preceptor’s Conference in May.
We are particularly proud of our professor Dr. Jody Rogers for speaking at a session on enhancing employee engagement. The session was called Creating Great Workplaces: The Courage to Lead, and many alumni and student were in attendance.
The students took advantage of their time in Chicago and made sure to explore the city. They tried deep dish pizza and spent time at the Navy Pier, Hancock Tower, and Cloud Gate. The week proved yet another opportunity for them to bond as a class. We are lucky to be able to support our students in their budding careers by sending them to Chicago every year!
