Many of them, along with other friends and colleagues, were able to join the Meet and Greet hosted at the conference by MEDEX on March 11.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Seattle faculty members Lois Thetford and Bridget Albright (who both happen to also be MEDEX grads!) were in attendance at the conference and shared their experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div id=\"gap-448757438\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-448757438 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n<div class=\"text-center\"><div class=\"is-divider divider clearfix\" style=\"max-width:1000px;background-color:rgb(8, 0, 0);\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n<p><strong>From Lois Thetford:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For the first time, at least for a WAPA conference, there was a specific track for students that addressed career goals, negotiating contracts, and other content such as \u201cWhat to expect in your surgical rotation.\u201d Students from Pacific University were instructed to attend; OHSU and MEDEX students were invited as their schedules allowed.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday night\u2019s gathering focused on the Challenge Bowl, where mixed teams of three competed against one another on difficult questions related to diagnosis and treatment. Everyone was encouraged to put their name in the hat. There were three rounds and then a final round of the three winners. It was very boisterous, with cheering and jeering.<\/p>\n<p>The Monday and Tuesday sessions were very well attended with a wide range of topics. Presenters included Seattle Class 45 graduate and WAPA Liaison to the WSMA Better Prescribing Better Treatment Grant, Leah Hampson Yoke on Infectious Disease; current Seattle 57 didactic student and WAPA Student Rep, Nick Stanton, with Eric Humphrey, PA-C (Pacific University) on Wilderness Medicine; Seattle Class 48 graduate and WAPA President Elect, Joshua Lumsden on HIV in Primary Care. Additionally, a number of speakers were present from Oregon Health Sciences University and many practices throughout the area.<\/p>\n<div class=\"text-center\"><div class=\"is-divider divider clearfix\" style=\"max-width:1000px;background-color:rgb(8, 0, 0);\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n<p><strong>From Bridget Albright:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This was the first of what I hope is many joint OSPA and WAPA conferences. It was amazing to see all the students outside of the classroom, learning and networking and just relaxing and enjoying themselves. To see their eyes light up with the knowledge that there is life after PA school\u2014and how wonderful that life is\u2014was incredible.<\/p>\n<p>To see PAs meeting students and saying, \u201cYeah, give me a call, happy to have you work with me,\u201d to see PA students gain insight into what a career in Infectious Disease, hospital medicine, pulmonology, or interventional radiology might look like was wonderful. The hotel, the surroundings, the food, the social events, and the guest speakers all added to a truly wonderful experience.<\/p>\n<p><em>[Editor&#8217;s Note: Bridget is also currently WAPA
