The more I spend time with my teachers and preceptors in the hospital, the more I realize I made the right decision.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">The Phyllis Ann Canup Pepper Radiologic Science Memorial Endowed Scholarship provides scholarship support for Monago.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">&#8220;I was very grateful that someone noticed that there are students who need help,&#8221; Monago said. &#8220;I think what they are doing for our program and for allied health sciences is fantastic, and it helps me and a lot of my classmates be able to just achieve more than we would have without
