Abstract
When COVID-19 shuttered schools across the nation, it propelled higher education institutions into uncharted territories. Institutions had to make rapid decisions in a short period of time with limited information or direction. In these uncertain and challenging times, pharmacy academics in the United States and around the world reached out to one another to discuss, share, and learn. What began with a few members of the Student Services Personnel Special Interest Group (SIG) grew to many members who banded together as a team through open discussions to innovative problem-solving. Working together through open discussions created a setting that promoted diverse ideas, multiple perspectives, and a depth of knowledge to address some of the most challenging issues faced by pharmacy education. When partnering together, institutions had a much greater resource of knowledge and support that could be leveraged to broadly benefit the Academy.
