  1. Awesome! Congratulations, Dr. Odom! From discussing my first clinical experiences with you while at Duke to heavily recruiting Duke students for my clinics, to meeting up at the Educational Leadership Conference, and to becoming credentialed as a Clinical Instructor, you have played such a major role in my passion for clinical education. This announcement brings me much joy!
