Walter C. Buchsieb

You asked why the Buchsieb's would place a rider in their will to support the foundation. We did so based on my experience with part and full time teaching at Ohio State University. It became clear to me that for our specialty to remain strong we needed the best teachers available.

I first hand saw that many who came for interviews as faculty were unable to accept a position partly based on the high costs of moving and the remuneration that was available from our state.

The support that the Foundation gives to the program is part of the assistance that each section or department needs. We as orthodontists must also give to our own schools for direct support of faculty.

This two pronged approach will hopefully cause residents to look at teaching as a viable option for their future.
