Western Regional Conference 2013




The Class of 2017 had a great time at the Western Regional Conference hosted by SCCO. Our day consisted of sitting through lectures given by OD's, meeting other optometry candidates from Berkeley and Western, and having a great night in LA. We look forward to attending next year's WRC hosted by Western University!
