After several meetings and conference calls by the Life University Board of Trustees, Life's founder and president, Dr. Sid Williams, has reportedly stepped down. Evidence suggests that his wife, Dr. Nell Williams (senior vice president and dean of student affairs), and his daughter, Dr. Kim Williams, an administrative assistant, have also resigned. Dr. Williams originally announced he would retire in March 2003, after a search for a new president was completed.
The board of trustees is expected to soon appoint an interim president. The primary task facing the new president will be to address Life's loss of CCE accreditation. Among Life's options are a formal appeal of the loss of accreditation (the deadline is July 10, 2002), and a "teach out" of the Life chiropractic students by another accredited chiropractic college.

You became a chiropractor to serve people, not an insurance company. You deserve to run a business that aligns with your values, supports your family and lights you up. Cash-based care isn’t just a pricing model – it’s a philosophy rooted in freedom, trust and respect for your patients and for yourself. Here's why - and how - to do it.
Troy University, a public university in Alabama boasting a 138-year history (1887) and current enrollment topping 14,000 students, has announced it has received program approval from the Alabama Commission on Higher Education for a new doctor of chiropractic program – only the second at a public university in the U.S. Approval from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges is pending.

At this very moment in history, the public is awakening. They’re questioning what they’ve been told about health – what they eat, how they think, how they manage stress, and what they’ve been prescribed. The recently released MAHA Report is a clarion call for transformation. As the public seeks answers beyond pills and procedures, chiropractic is poised to offer something more: whole-being care.
