Doctor Dilemmas: Leah Rothstein, BC ’13 and representative for student services, is working with the Student Health Advisory Committee to collect feedback from students on their experiences using the on-call clinician. She said that many have reported that the clinician most often prescribes a visit to the emergency room, and SHACK wants to gather data to see if that's true.
Shabbat Sign-In Shpilkes: Next semester Rivka Holzer, BC ’15 and representative for community programming, plans on clarifying and publicizing the Shabbat guest sign-in policy because many students have voiced difficulties with hosting guests on Shabbat.
