The UW School of Dentistry recently celebrated its 80th anniversary.

We spoke with alumni, faculty and staff who have helped build the UWSOD into what it is today over the span of those 80 years, and they shared some of their personal dental school experiences and what they think makes the UW School of Dentistry special.

On Saturday, UW RIDE DDS students and Eastern Washington University Dental Hygiene students gathered to enjoy an evening of food, drinks, golf simulators and games.

Students participated in rounds of dental Kahoot and bingo; EWU students took home each of the top five spots in Kahoot (RIDE students admit they need to work a little harder next year). Sami (D1) and Dr. Art DiMarco were standouts on the golf simulator.

Overall, everyone had an amazing time hanging out, furthering friendships that will carry over into working relationships during everyone’s time in school and beyond.
