Numerous areas of the medical field were covered, from regulations, radiology and respiratory care to therapy and emergency medical services.

After a pizza-lunch, the students were able to discuss nursing careers one-on-one with representatives from Purdue University Calumet and University St. Francis-Crown Point. Hebron High teacher Nancy Anders, who has been offering the class for five years, said its purpose is the help students understand their areas of interest through hands-on exposure and job-shadowing.

The program also includes some 95 other students who are exploring various career paths.
