Q2: 2018
ACHE HIGHER EDUCATION NETWORK
I have started the new convocation year by visiting students, interns and fellows at the University of Chicago. The visit was facilitated by Ellen Feinstein RD, MHA, FACHE, Vice President, Cancer Services. During the 2017-2018 Convocation Year, only 47 percent of the programs in the Higher Education Network were visited. My goal is to visit all of the school is our District during the fall of 2108. ACHE expects Regents to visit the ACHE Higher Education Network participants in their area at least once per Convocation year. If a Regent is unable to make a visit he or she may designate a RAC member or local ACHE chapter member to complete the visit. Full credit will be given for visits completed by these representatives.
Respectfully Summited,
Rupert M. Evans
