I've almost got you all caught up on what happened in my six weeks spent at Case - I didn't keep track of it as it was happening so I'm sure you're not hearing the majority of my experience. However, I think you've got the general gist of things. So when I was at my program, we had a variety of clinical experiences that we got to participate in. Each of the pre-dental students got four shadowing hours in the dental clinic and an opportunity to watch an oral surgery, (which you've already heard about.)  My second day in the clinic, the dental student I was observing asked if I wanted to assist.

So, what better way to procrastinate than with a blog post? I could really tell how Cleveland tried to put on fun, safe things to do during the summer - Wade Oval Wednesdays being an example ...
