On August 27, Kristin Hiebner, the daughter of Lowell and Susanne Hiebner and Carly Hiebner (Grant), daughter of Jay and Marilyn Kroeker received white coats following completion of their first year of physical therapy school at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. The white coats were sponsored by UNMC alumni and presented to all 50 students in the UNMC PT class of 2013. The coats will be worn during clinical rotations as well as other school and volunteer activities.
Kristin and Carly graduated from Heartland Community Schools in 2006, and after spending four years apart during their undergraduate educations, have enjoyed being classmates once again at UNMC. Kristin attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and graduated with a B.S. in Nutrition, Exercise and Health Science. Carly attended Tabor College and graduated with a B.A. in Natural Sciences and Mathematics.
Students also have the opportunity to study courses in physical therapy from accredited online colleges.
