WOW!!!

Congratulations to the 2009 graduating class!!!!

They attained a PERFECT "first-time pass rate" of 100% on their license exams.

In other words - every single graduate passed their license exam on the first try.....that's an amazing accomplishment - you all deserve a LOT of recognition for that! GREAT JOB!!!

Check out the new "LibGuide for Physical Therapy" available through the LCCC Library homepage, created by the always amazing Susan Paul:
http://libguides.lorainccc.edu/physicaltherapy

We are really lucky to have some of the best facilities, resources, and Librians/faculty/staff here at LCCC. They're always doing something new, cutting edge, or just plain helpful. Students come back and tell me about how they spends HOURS with them helping them determine if a journal article meets an assignment guideline, or helping them find JUST the RIGHT rersearch for a topic.
Or The PTA faculty will request a book for the library shelves, and Susan comes back with 3 more suggested books she found. Sometimes they don't get enough thanks - so here you go!


A couple more updates -
The second year students are going crazy fundraising. Great job guys!

Service learning projects are in full swing by both first and second year students - thanks to all of you who participate. It makes a difference you know. You have an impact on people.

Jim and John are knee deep in research data and methods in their next course in their doctoral program.

Welcome to our new lab assistant Marlo. She's a keeper!

And lastly, for all you prospective students - remember that the application deadline for a completed program application is Nov 15th.
