President's Message

For my third year as a member of Alpha Omega, I am excited to have the privilege of heading Chapter Lambda.  As one of the largest international dental organizations, AO offers great benefits to its members.  Through conventions and webcasts we have the opportunity to broaden our horizons beyond the basics taught in dental school.  By participating in the Externship Program, students get an amazing exposure to general and specialty practices all across North America and even Europe.  Upon graduation, the Associateship Program helps to connect students with practices seeking to hire new dentists.  In addition, AO offers post-graduate and residency assistance for those wishing to go beyond the scope of general practice.  And most importantly, through AO we have the opportunity to build lasting professional friendships all around the world!

Here, at the University of Saskatchewan, I hope to see our young Chapter Lambda grow and prosper to become an important part of the College of Dentistry.  Though it is only our fourth year in existence, we have already proved our value by winning the Chapter Efficiency Award.  This means that we were recognized as the most active small-size student chapter in the world!  And I hope to continue this tradition of excellence by offering many social events and educational opportunities.

What is AO? ¡@ ¡@ ¡@ ¡@

     Alpha Omega is the oldest international dental organization and was founded in Baltimore, Maryland in 1907 by a group of dental students originally to fight discrimination in dental schools. Today, with our headquarters relocated to Glen Rock, NJ, it is primarily an educational and philanthropic organization. There are chapters and members in cities and dental schools in the United States, Canada, South America, Europe, Israel, South Africa and Australia/New Zealand. Alpha Omega represents about 6,000 active dentists worldwide. To learn more about AO, check out the AO global website.
     Chapter Lambda is founded by students from University of Saskatchewan in 2004.  Currently we have 12 members
with Dr. Aptekar acting as consultant to our chapter and expecting few more after our 2007 recruitment lunch presentation. To find out more about our supporters and previous members, click here to the Lambda homepage
