FSOP Gives Thanks
(with the generous support from HEB)
October 2008 - The Pharmacy Museum Foundation of Texas donated its inventory of over 4,000 early pharmacy artifacts, dated from between 1850-1950, and valued at more than $250,000 to the Feik School of Pharmacy. Billy Walker, chairman of the Pharmacy Museum Foundation of Texas, and several Foundation board members met with Dr. Louis Agnese, and FSOP Founding Dean Dr. Arcelia Johnson-Fannin to commemorate the important gift.

UIW Takes Another Step Toward Receiving Pharmacy Accreditation
The University of the Incarnate Word Feik School of Pharmacy has reached another milestone towards helping to alleviate the shortage of pharmacists in San Antonio and South Texas. The Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) program achieved candidate status from the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE).
Candidate status is the second step in a three-step process for a school to receive accreditation. Candidate status affords the pharmacy graduate the right to take the pharmacy licensing exam (NAPLEX) anywhere in the United States or Canada. Additionally, this step denotes a developmental program which is expected to mature in accordance with stated plans and within a defined time period. During this phase, the school continues to evolve and provide specific assurances that will allow the program to become fully accredited by the time the first class graduates.
“We did everything ‘by the book’ while writing some new chapters for others to follow,” said Arcelia Johnson-Fannin, Pharm.D.,R.Ph., UIW Founding Dean of the Feik School of Pharmacy. “We are pleased and excited that the University has made it to this monumental step in the accreditation process.”
Once again, Johnson-Fannin stressed that the process to get to this stage in the accreditation was accomplished by the hard work of the Pharmacy school faculty and staff, the University, the city of San Antonio, and its surrounding communities.
Full accreditation should be awarded to the University in 2010 after the first class graduates.
