Great turnout for last night’s Surgical Technology Pinning Ceremony. Congratulations to all of the program graduates, pictured here receiving their pins.

Each graduate was able to choose someone who supported them throughout the program to help present their pin, making the evening even more meaningful.

We are proud to share that every graduate from this year’s program has been hired.

I believe that through studying for my English degree, I have become a more open-minded, sympathetic and empathetic person.
