Brittany’s Knee On Saturday, March 29th, four students from Sackets Harbor, Alexandra Maas, Brittany Robbins, Gregory Cring, and Andrew Bombard, went to a program at Clarkson University entitled Brittany’s Knee. This program offered the students an opportunity to get an in-depth look at the physical therapy degree program at Clarkson University. Students learned how Clarkson University utilizes problem-based learning to prepare individuals for a career in physical theraspy. The students got to experience classroom material in a small group format, clinical laboratory presentations, and human anatomy laboratory material. They learned a lot about what it takes to be a physical therapist! |
