The Collin chapter of the Student American Dental Hygiene Association (SADHA) attended the 2006 Texas SADHA Annual Session held Feb. 3-4 at The Richardson Hotel.
The annual meeting was attended by student delegates and representatives from dental hygiene schools across the state. Collin served as the host school for the meeting participating in opening ceremonies and assisting with conference registration.
Students from each school served as delegates in the House of Delegates and gained insight into the political aspects of the Texas Dental Hygiene Association (TDHA). Delegates formulated and passed resolutions to be addressed at the upcoming TDHA session in San Antonio to potentially affect legislation governing the dental hygiene profession.
Additional activities during the session included a fashion show with models wearing outfits made entirely of dental-related materials.
The Collin chapter won third place in the competition. Second year students presented table clinics at the event showcasing their research on various dental hygiene topics.
