Faculty and students at the college offer these cadaver visits as a way to get highschool students more interested in studying biology and other sciences in their post-secondary education. The students get a chance to meet and interact with college faculty and current CCCC students. “I believe the visiting students appreciate the tour being informative but aremore fascinated with the fact they have never been around cadavers before or had the opportunity for a hands-on learning experience,” Tyrone Hughbanks, CCCC instructor of biology, said. Cloud County Community College is one of only two community colleges in Kansas tohave a cadaver lab and offer a Human Body Dissection course and utilize thecadavers in the Human Anatomy course. The science department at CCCC prides itself with giving cadaver tours annually for the area high schools. Each year 250 – 300 high school students tour the cadaver lab. Currently, Professor Tyrone Hughbanks delivers the presentations to area students who are enrolled in high school science classes in this field. Tours can be set up through the department’s secretary or by contacting Hughbanks at thughbanks@cloud.edu.
