[Histonet] Histology schools]

[Malcolm McCallum]

Now this is a new thing to me.
What would a school need to do to offer a histotech certificate or degree (bs) program???

I went to a local junior college to try to set up a histology program. I
offered my services as an instructor and our lab as a teaching facility.
This junior college had thought about doing this in the past but never did.
I was told that they didn't want to flood the local market with histotechs.
Imagine that!! I tried to make my case to no avail. I have been (and still
am) looking for a histotech for the past 5 months with no luck.
