Case Western Reserve University Advocacy Honor Roll

The honor roll is a compilation of graduates of Case Western Reserve University’s (CWRU) Anesthesiologist Assistant educational program who have been involved in professional advocacy. Advocacy has been and is an emphasis of the Master of Science in Anesthesia program in the education of our students.

Advocacy for this purpose is defined as involvement and leadership in the educational, national, state, professional organizational, and occupational activities that, directly and indirectly, promote the Certified Anesthesiologist Assistant profession. All of the following CWRU graduates have contributed in some way to the promotion of their profession and the giving of their valuable time and effort on our profession’s behalf.

The Advocacy Honor Roll will be an ongoing project of the CWRU Master of Science in Anesthesia program. As new information is obtained amendments will be made to this document.
