Back to the Future?
Yesterday was my first day at NYUCD. I decided to return to my old haunts to teach third and fourth year students in Module #3AB. Although it was completely redecorated it is the same space where I spent my clinical studies in my third and final year of dental school. The clinic and the school have definitely had a facelift since my days as a student and clinical instructor in the 1980's ( I was also teaching in module 3AB as well.
My practice hours in my own dental practice have been modified to include a later start time on Thursdays ( about one PM) since I will be teaching on Thursday mornings and all day Friday. I even have time for me to walk to and from the school from my office. Its only about a 25 minute walk, so I intend to use the time to get some much needed exercise.
I will spend the next month shadowing experienced faculty, so I can observe the "new" NYU ways , since things have changed a lot since my last stint teaching. I also have some online training that I need to do before I will be allowed to formally supervise procedures but I am excited and honored to have the opportunity to help with the training of the students that I met yesterday.
