Oppose the Requirement for jurisprudence examination
 

The problem is the lack of clear and concise communication from the BOD, rather than publishing statues in arcane legal language, the regulations should be clearly stated, in plain English.

Email updates and newsletters would better inform the dental professionals in Virginia than a test every 3 years.

We already have a continuing education requirement; it makes more sense to have a Jurisprudence and Ethics C.E. requirement rather than an examination.
