Welcome ASDOH Class of 2014!

This website is designed to allow us all to share our notes, post ideas, questions, concerns, suggestions... basically, share whatever you'd like (as long as it's professional).

This website is still a work in progress, but my goal is that we will, as a class, improve upon this site so as to make it even better and more useful.

Remember, we will either succeed as a class, or fail as individuals... the choice is ours, so let's make it count.
