Forty students from Meridian Community College Practical Nursing, Medical Laboratory Technology, and Radiologic Technology programs reached out to help canines in need.

The students donated some 759 pounds of dog food to the East Mississippi Animal Rescue
dog food drive, said Debra Herring, coordinator and instructor for the Radiologic
Technology Program.

MCC alumna Christina Mumme, a former Radiologic Technology Program student, sponsored
the drive. For many years, Mumme has provided a $100 cash prize for students who donate
dog food to EMAR. For every 10 pounds donated, the student’s name is included in a
drawing for a cash award.

This year, the two $100 prizes winners were Kristenlyn Robinson and Melinda Reed,
practical nursing students.
