This study was designed to establish a descriptive profile of the personality characteristics of radiologic technology educators in order to draw inferences to the roles the characteristics play in radiologic technology education. The results of the study indicate that R.T. educators tend to be field-dependent, high in integrative complexity, low in dogmatism, and Concrete Sequential in learning style. These results suggest that the educators approach their roles in a structured, open-minded, sequential manner and exercise a high level of interpersonal skills.

The Fair Labor Standards Act, also known as the "Wage and Hour Law," has been expanded to include health professionals in radiologic technology programs as interpreted by functionaries of the Department of Labor. This interpretation is diametrically opposed to that of hospital administrators and program directors. It remains for federal courts to decide whether technology students are indeed students or hospital employees, deserving of minimum wages by their "employers." Program directors are advised to litigate any claims by field representatives of the Department of Labor who claim that technology students are hospital employees and not legitimate students in a bona fide school. The federal loan program recognized technology students as true students rather than employees, thereby exempting them from qualification for the minimum wage rules. If students in programs of radiologic technology are viewed as employees, the additional cost to most hospitals could destroy the system of training as we now know it.
The concept of academic tenure is reviewed, with special interest to the radiologic technology educator. Both the community college and university tenure systems are discussed. Recommendations for further research and future policy are also presented.
Even after fifteen years of use, behavioral objectives are still the subject of controversy. In radiologic technology programs their use is relatively new and not too well understood by some. This statement, therefore, briefly emphasizes why it is important to the student and teacher alike to identify what the student will be expected to achieve and how the degree of his achievement will be assessed.
