Barry and Judy Silverman give transformational gift to pharmacy program

Barry and Judy Silverman, Board of Trustees Vice Chair and Chair of the NSU Health Professions Division Board of Governors, have gifted NSU’s pharmacy program a transformational gift that will change the lives of pharmacy students at NSU.

In their honor, NSU College of Pharmacy has been renamed the Barry and Judy Silverman College of Pharmacy.

“Education is something near and dear to our hearts, and to be able to provide a gift that will change the lives of students and the next generation of pharmacists and doctors was something we could not pass up,” said Barry Silverman.

Michelle Clarke, dean of the Barry and Judy Silverman College of Pharmacy, said the gift, of an undisclosed amount, will help to lessen students’ financial stress.

“The gift from the Silvermans really is to support scholarships or various scholarship activities that are needed to allow our students to graduate with a lower financial burden,” said Clarke. With the transformational gift, one student who most exemplifies the pharmacy’s core values will receive the Barry and Judy Silverman Award at the commencement ceremony on May 12.
