ASCT Student Contest Details and Winners
Each year at the ASCT Annual Meeting, all currently enrolled cytology
students are invited to present an interesting case. The ASCT/Warren
R. Lang Student Awards are presented to the students with the best
interesting case presentations
($150 for first place, $100 for second place and $50 for third place).
Both content and presentation are considered when determining awards.
All student participants will each receive a “Certificate of
Recognition” and be acknowledged in the ASCT Voice and
website. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to showcase
their talents and meet and interact with other students and
cytotechnologists. For contest instructions,

2007 ASCT Warren R. Lang Student Winners
This year 40 students from 11 different cytotechnology programs
submitted interesting cases for the contest. Eight students were
chosen to present their cases during the general session of the
meeting. Computer presentations of the remaining cases were shared
with all attendees of the Annual Conference through a computer loop in
the exhibit hall.
Congratulations to our 2007 winners: (these

- Proficiency Testing Requirements for New Graduates
New graduates of schools of cytotechnology who have taken the certification examination administered by the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP) Board of Registry (BOR) and obtained a passing score, have demonstrated an initial competency level in the examination of cervical cytology and therefore, will not be monitored for cytology PT in the calendar year in which they passed their exam.
New graduates of schools of cytotechnology who are employed or who have not obtained a passing score on the BOR examination MUST participate in cytology PT each calendar year
