Dental leaders named Hinman scholars
|
MUSC dental students Elizabeth Fulmer and Kathryn Stroud received
scholarships from the Thomas P. Hinman Dental Society. The students
were among 89 dental students, dental hygiene and dental profession
students who were awarded scholarships this spring.
The students received their award and were named Hinman Scholars during
an annual luncheon at the Hinman Dental Meeting in March.
Fourth-year dental students Fulmer and Stroud have both excelled in
leadership and scholarship at MUSC. Both students are 2010 Presidential
Scholars and are considering orthodontist residencies.
