Retirement Party for Dr. Shaw
Hundreds of friends, colleagues, and former students from across the
country gathered last month to honor the career of Dr. Stanley M. Shaw.
Dr. Shaw joined the faculty at Purdue University in 1962 and has made
major contributions to nuclear pharmacy education, research, and service
to the profession. The retirement dinner included a version of
"This is Your Life" with many humorous and heartwarming stories.
The event was a testimony to positive influence that Dr. Shaw has had on
the profession and his many students.
