What are your general comments?

I had a great experience. I previously reviewed this when there was no CCLCM category. In any case, there were a total of 3 tours: student, researcher and resident. There were also a couple of talks, etc. Dr. Hutzler and Mrs. Myers are so personable and great. The most interesting part of the day was the curriculum. It definitely is the star of the program.
