BMCC's Respiratory Therapy Program Wins the 2007 Sputum Bowl Video
A team representing BMCC's respiratory therapy program recently won the 2007 Sputum Bowl — an academic competition that tests players' knowledge of pulmonary function, pediatrics, neonatology, microbiology, physiology and related areas. Sweetening the victory was the fact that the field was dominated by four-year schools — LIU, SUNY-Stony Brook, and Molloy College. BMCC was one of only two community colleges in the event, which is sponsored by the Southeastern Chapter of the New York State Society for Respiratory Care. To be sure, first-place showings are nothing new for BMCC, which has won five out of the past six years and also in 1987, 1992 and 2001, 2002, 2004, 2006. "The questions were very tough and some touched on areas that our students hadn't yet covered," says team coach, Neil Rodia, an associate professor. "But they weren't fazed. They really hit the books and prepared well." Team member James Wehrman admits to being "incredibly nervous" beforehand. "When it over, I was so overwhelmed that it didn't hit me for at least 10 minutes," he says. "Meanwhile, my teammates were jumping out of their chairs."
