Alyson Pile (Graduated from Creative Communications in 2008): “My best memories of CreComm are all from the newsroom. Those nights where we worked late always ended up being a really good time. It gave you a sense of camaraderie. And after late nights of big projects, you know that nothing will be harder than CreComm.”
Tammy Hardie (Graduated from the Medical Laboratory Technology (MLT) program in 1980): “I remember Bill Younger sharing his slides… and of course, all the fun practical jokes my classmates and I played on one another in the labs.”
Maureen Frolick (Graduated from the Biological Technology program in 1990): “My fondest memory was graduation day, but also two of my classmates, Deolinda and Susan.”
Why College, not University?
Irene L. Bayne (Graduated from the Medical Laboratory Technology (MLT) program in 1980): “I tried U of W, but found I was unfocused on the outcome of my degree. I found directed courses and working towards a definite outcome was the way for me to go. I have never regretted leaving university for community college. I have been working in my chosen field for thirty years next year.”
Chris Link-Muirhead (Graduated from the Medical Laboratory Technology (MLT) program in 1980): “I found college more suited to what I wanted to do as a career.”
Alyson Pile: “I chose Red River because of the Creative Communications program,” she said. “I always enjoyed writing and the program had such a good reputation that I just knew it was the right path for me.”
Maureen Frolick: “I chose college because it is more job oriented. I was able to take a two year program at RRC versus a four year program at the University of Manitoba.”
