Haley Brock, a radiologic technology student at Midwestern State University, has been selected to participate in the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) 2018 Student Leadership Development Program.

Brock was one of approximately 100 radiologic science students chosen from around the country to participate in the program. As part of the application process, students were required to write a 500-700 word essay on how they expect to grow professionally by participating in the program.

Brock said she was honored to be chosen for the prestigious program. "Words cannot express the opportunity that I have been given to represent Midwestern State University Radiology as well as the State of Texas. This achievement is a dream come true for me and an experience that I will forever carry with me throughout my radiology career," she said.

She will receive an expense-paid trip to the 2018 ASRT Educational Symposium and Annual Governance and House of Delegates Meeting June 21-24 in Las Vegas. In addition, Brock will attend educational courses specifically designed for students, attend the House of Delegates meetings and be assigned a mentor from the profession.

The ASRT is the world's largest radiologic science association and represents more than 153,000 medical imaging and radiation therapy professionals in the United States. The society also provides radiologic technology students with the tools, services, and support they need to prepare for careers in medical imaging and radiation therapy.
