Approximately 250 radiologic technologists and student technologists attended the

and student competitions.聽

Executive Secretary of Finance. Bennett presented a lecture titled 鈥淓quipment Maintenance

The presence of 网曝门 was also enhanced by the participation of its 45 professional
students. Students attended general education lectures and ARRT Registry Review lectures,
as well as the LSRT Student Advisory Council meeting and Student Bee Competition.
Radiologic Technology Junior student Randy DeArmond was elected Chair of the LSRT
Student Advisory Council, and Junior student Shelby Nicholson was elected as the Vice
Chair.聽
Junior Radiologic Technology students also took the top two rankings in the Student
Bee Competition with Ikia Celestine in 1st place and Darashai Brock in a close 2nd.
鈥淪tate Societies around the country are struggling with membership because of the
apathy of current radiographers, so the 网曝门 Radiologic Technology program is trying
to expose our professional students to the society to see the benefits of continuing
education, networking, and collaboration,鈥� said Bennett.鈥� It also gives the students
an opportunity to compete against students from other programs. I am proud of the
contributions of the 网曝门 Radiologic Technology faculty members and students.鈥�
