Tom Gossel shares his pharmacy experiences with ONU students

Dr. Tom Gossel returned to the ONU campus last week to speak to students about the profession of pharmacy and his career experiences.

Dr. Gossel told students that he wasn’t sure what he wanted to do after high school, but through the direction and kindness of several people, he discovered ONU and pharmacy – it was a perfect pairing.

After graduating from Ohio Northern in 1963, he went on to become a professor, and eventually Dean at the Ohio Northern University Raabe College of Pharmacy.
