"We are the future Clinical Laboratory Scientists of America

We are members of the University of West Florida Medical Technology Student Association Chapter.

We face the future with warm courage and high hope.

As we seek our degree in Medical Technology and status,

we will work towards understanding the responsibility of a Clinical Laboratory Scientist.

We will seek opportunities for self-development and preparation for community and medical health employment.

I can do, I will be, and I honor the rights of my fellowmen to Do, to Be, and to Become.

Whatever dreams my mind can conceive and my heart believe, and believing in myself, I can achieve.

I will seek wisdom, knowledge and understanding to make these dreams come true.

I choose therefore, to cherish my hopes, follow my dreams, and embrace life with a passion."
