Suit vs. UGA prof suspends national pharmacy exam

A national licensing exam for pharmacy school graduates has been suspended following a federal lawsuit against a University of Georgia professor.

The suit filed by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy alleges that Flynn Warren Jr. copied exam questions and passed them out in course materials to students. The suit also names the Georgia Board of Regents as a defendant. An Association official says the students who were to take the tests will be rescheduled later this year.

The exam is taken by pharmacy graduates across the country, which they must pass before becoming a practicing professional. Warren recently retired from UGA in July.
