For the college’s 100-year celebration, the Radiologic Technology Program’s first- and second-year students collected and donated “100 Items to Warm Your Bones” for the 100 Ways to Give project. The 100 items were donated to the Mel Trotter Ministries and were handed out to the public in need of winter clothing items.
On October 30, the Radiologic Technology 2nd year students hosted a Bone Buddy Clinic for the David D. Hunting YMCA Child Development Center preschool class. Each preschooler brought a toy to the clinic for an x-ray that they brought home, they learned about how x-rays are taken, decorated body cookies with culinary students, and learned about the bones in the body.
Happy Radiologic Technologist Week

Our radiologic technology students found a way to combine fun and service by working with Habitat for Humanity of Kent County this week! Our friends at Habitat were kind enough to share photos.

The Radiologic Technology Program hosted a “Toy Clinic” with the Preschool Program on October 31 in Julie Lackscheide’s Radiographic Positioning Class. The second year Rad Tech students and their “bone buddy” preschooler toured the lab while learning about the equipment, played Halloween games, matched up bones with their own body outlines, and decorated skeletons. The Rad Tech students gained additional knowledge with the pediatric population, while being able to introduce the preschoolers to the health care setting and learn about bones. At the end of the clinic, each “bone buddy” took home a radiograph of their toy that they brought with them to be seen at the clinic.

On April 17, the GRCC Radiologic Technology students and staff participated in the RT “Walk on Lansing” sponsored by the MSRT, the ASRT and Lansing Community College. The event was held in support of the Mi C.A.R.E. legislation bill. If passed, the bill would require all medical imaging personnel to be educated and licensed in the state of Michigan. Over 300 imaging professionals and students attended the walk. The GRCC students met with the offices of 12 state representatives and one office agreed to co-sponsor the bill.
