Madeline enrolled in Radiation Therapy after meeting alumni who raved about the program. As a student, Madeline fell in love with the combination of classroom education and hands-on experience, "We were given the building blocks and then sent to clinic." she says. "The community the college has created between the professors and the therapists who work with students is built for you to strive, achieve and be the best therapist you can be."
