Passionate about improving the health and quality of life for all, the SHS Dean's Advisory Board is responsible for advising administrators and providing input concerning educational programs, events, student opportunities, and facilities and operations. The Dean's Advisory Board is essentially responsible for ensuring that the school continues to flourish in the rapidly changing global healthcare spectrum.
