Dean Philip Hall is on a mission to visit in honor of MUSC’s Bicentennial—and one of his latest stops took him to Burke’s Main Street Pharmacy in Hilton Head! It was a pleasure catching up with alumni Cole Holloway and Ryan Rosenblatt, and reconnecting with Will Douglass.

Dean Philip Hall recently announced he is stepping down after 15 years as dean!

The Hall administration began with some visionary objectives – re-establish an independent MUSC pharmacy, complete the college’s largest fundraising campaign, build a new pharmacy facility, position the college for the future – and has met them all.

We’re so grateful for his outstanding leadership and continuing service to MUSC pharmacy as a faculty member once the new dean is in place.

Thank you, Dean Hall!

And just like that, our Class of 2025 celebration series comes to a close! 🎓 Thank you for following along as we spotlighted the incredible accomplishments of our newest graduates. One last (and very big) congratulations to the Class of 2025 — we’re so proud of you!
