3 Cool Events: TOMORROW!

To celebrate National Medical Laboratory Professionals Week, the Medical Laboratory Technician students will host Wellness Wednesday on April 25 outside the Fitness Center on the City Park Campus, 9 – 11 am. Here's what they say:
"Medical Laboratory Technicians are vital members of the healthcare team who perform diagnostic tests on blood, urine, and other body fluids. 70% of medical decisions are based off of the results that MLT's provide for physicians. Ever wondered what your lab tests mean? Stop by on Wednesday and let the MLT students help you make sense of it!"
