Dr. Clark Named Northwestern's Alumnus of the Year
Donald Clark, DC has been honored by Northwestern College of Chiropractic as the college's alumnus of the year. A 1980 graduate of NWCC, Dr. Clark currently serves as the president of Northwestern's alumni association. He is also a member of both the Minnesota Chiropractic Foundation and the Minnesota Chiropractic Association.
"He has given immensely of his time and effort, said Jim McDonald, MBA, Northwestern's president for institutional advancement. "Don puts so much effort into the college and the profession."
Winning the award may have caught Dr. Clark by surprise, but it hasn't lessened his convictions about being the best chiropractor possible. "My personal philosophy is that I just try to be the best I can at whatever I do, and to do it from the heart," said Dr. Clark. "Now I have to work hard enough to earn this award."
