Transitions: Changing Emphases in Pharmacy Education 1946 to 1976

In 1971, then president of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP), Arthur Schwarting, called for the creation of a Commission to “. . . determine the scope of pharmacy services in health care and project the educational processes necessary to insure that these services are obtained.” [ 1 ] The Study Commission on Pharmacy (Millis Commission) was formed in the fall of 1972 with John S. Millis, Ph.D., Chancellor emeritus of Case Western University, as chairperson. The results of that study were reported in Pharmacists for the Future: The Report of the Study Commission on Pharmacy [ 2 ] [Appendix I].
