Cypress College (Radiology/X-Ray Tech)
As a current student right now at Cypress College finishing my AA degree I wish to stay at cypress after I get my AA degree and enroll in the radiology program and get a certificate for finishing the two year program. I am a transfer from Santiago College in Orange and personally coming to Cypress College was one of the best decisions I made because the environment and people are much friendlier at Cypress and it sets the tone for a better learning environment. Also since I attended Kennedy high school and cypress being the main college that Kennedy people go to I frequently see old friends and people I haven’t seen in a while which is always a pleasant surprise. After completing this semester it will have been a year since I started going to cypress and I’ve noticed a boost in my grades and attitude for school and to keep the focus and determination I need to get to my goal of becoming an X-Ray technician one day. I have done my research and Cypress College is one of the few that have a radiology program and the reviews I’ve seen are nothing but good reviews. I also am choosing Cypress college to get my program certificate just because of the fact it is where I grew up and I am not the type of person to go to school far away or live on my own just yet. One teacher I found that teaches a in the radiology program at Cypress College is Laura Greico. She is a graduate of the Cypress Radiology program and has her license in Radiography, Fluoroscopy and Mammography. After completing her bachelors in vocational education and teaching credentials she started teaching at Cypress College in 1983. She is also a member of the American Society of Radiological Technologists and the California Society of Radiological Technologists.
