Dr. Wong Visits CUC Graduates at LLU

Dr. Laurence Wong, professor of biochemistry, recently took 17 CUC alumni who now study at Loma Linda University to supper at the Olive Garden in nearby San Bernardino.  "We currently have between 25 and 30 of our students studying at Loma Linda University," said Dr. Wong.  Of the students shown in the photo below, three are in LLU's nursing program, four are in the School of Dentistry, and nine are in the School of Medicine. (The young man making the rabbit ears is actually in one of LLU's most demanding programs, simultaneously working on his Ph.D. and MD!)

While in southern California Dr. Wong also met with students at nearby high schools to tell them about CUC's outstanding science programs.  "What was interesting for me was the fact that the prospective students I met were interested in our biology program not because our costs are lower, but because of our reputation," said Dr. Wong.

Because CUC and LLU do such a good job of teaching, we will in a few years gladly place our lives and teeth in the hands of these outstanding students!
