Rejoining the Wave

 Hey there, My name is Edward ("Teddy") Benjamin and I am a Pharmacology Graduate student at Tulane. I will be blogging each month about my volunteer hours and my experiences as a student in the Pharmacology program.  I went to Sewanee: The University of the South for undergraduate education and am a New Orleans native. I majored in Biology in undergrad, but I had a healthy dose of many different subjects including Math, Econ, Chemistry, and Spanish during my time at Sewanee. It was a fairly rigorous academic program, but the adjustment to graduate student life has been challenging especially with a difficult program like Pharmacology. I have previously taken a class, Calc II, at Tulane, but it was ages ago so there was a lot of stuff to reacquaint myself with regarding Tulane and classes. Thankfully the staff has been very helpful with this process and always makes themselves available for questions in person or through email if need be. This made the transition much easier,
