Hello Histo land,
this weekend at the Texas Society for Histotechnology, Dr. Carson stated
that beginning in 2005, all HT applicants must have an Associates Degree.  I
am working with a community college in San Antonio.  A one year certificate
program is in the works.  I would like to approach the dean with concrete
evidence about the degree requirement.  If anyone had an official letter
stating such, could you fax me a copy at (210) 704-3180.  Or, if you know
where I could obtain a letter.  Thank you.
