Clinical Laboratory Science graduation

Mrs. Lindsey ( Program Chair), me and Mr. Karselis at graduation reception
This is the first graduation of my life. I went to a medical school in Burma. In 8.8.88, I joined the resistance movement as a final year medical student. After fighting in the jungle as a freedom fighter against the Burmese military regime and got shot twice, I came to the US as a refugee. Here I had a chance to continue my education. I met a lot of friends at CLS program and still keep in touch with some of them. All of my professors were very nice and felt like a family to me. I went back and visited the department many times after I graduated.
