ASDA is the largest association dedicated to dental students and has been an emphasis at all dental schools since the organization was founded in 1971.

Over 80% of dental students in the U.S. and Puerto Rico are members of ASDA. ASDA represents the interests of all dental students. This is in contrast with other student organizations that focus on specialties or special interest groups. The strength of ASDA lies in our numbers. ASDA serves as the voice for dental student issues in organized dentistry. The larger our membership, the stronger our voice and concerns are heard when we are advocating, whether it be at the ADA House of Delegates, the state societies, or in Congress.

ASDA officers vote in the ASDA House of Delegates on matters pertaining to dental education and dental practice. ASDA meetings also provide opportunities to learn about issues not taught in dental school, develop leadership skills to use throughout their career and network with hundreds of dental students from schools across the nation.

ASDA is a student-run organization. Dental student members lead ASDA national Board of Trustees, its districts and chapters. Dental student members also comprise ASDA House of Delegates. ASDA is an extension of dental school by providing members the opportunity to develop meaningful leadership skills that will be an asset in their professional roles after dental school.

ASDA provides students an introduction to organized dentistry. When joining ASDA, students also become a student member of the ADA. ASDA members participate in activities and events sponsored by local, state, regional and national dental organizations. Leaders of the Missouri State Dental Association meet with the ASDA chapter.

Most students will join the American Dental Association, their state association and local dental society following graduation. Participation in ASDA during dental school prepares them for leadership roles, involvement in governmental activities and skills to run a business.

The H&R Block Foundation created the Henry W. Bloch Scholars Program (HWB) in honor of Henry Bloch's retirement.

Since 2001, this unique scholarship program has provided funding toward the cost of full tuition and fees.

In 2019, our program was given opportunity to serve even more local students through an expansion of our current scholarship, and the implementation of a new scholarship: The Marion H. Bloch Scholars Program (MHB). MHB is a complement to HWB and is designed to attract, encourage and support higher performing students living in urban environments in greater Kansas City.

With the addition of MHB, the Bloch Scholars Program became an all-embracing program with a diverse pool of participants. Although UMKC Bloch Scholars differ in major, academic year, educational background, life experience and career goals, they all find commonality through being a Bloch Scholar.

When six young women came together in 1902 to form a social sorority, they had a vision of lifetime sisterhood fostered by ideals that they cherished.

The six friends bonded quickly as they faced the challenges of starting a sorority on a male-dominated campus, as women had just been given full status as students at Miami University.
Alfa Lloyd, Mary Collins, Anna Keen, Julia Bishop, Mabelle Minton and Anne Simmons met with Dr. Guy Potter Benton, then president of the university, to make their idea a reality.

Delta Zeta Sorority was founded at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, in 1902. It was the first sorority to be founded at the university.

The Founders then went on to lay the foundation for a Sorority which would have a national reach. Today, Delta Zeta has enriched the lives of over 260,000 alumnae and collegiate members in the United States and Canada.

The Society seeks both to promote an awareness of these principles and to further their application through its activities.
This entails reordering priorities within the legal system to place a premium on individual liberty, traditional values, and the rule of law. It also requires restoring the recognition of the importance of these norms among lawyers, judges, law students and professors. In working to achieve these goals, the Society has created a conservative and libertarian intellectual network that extends to all levels of the legal communit
