FSCO Grants Emeritus Status
The board of directors of the Federation of Straight Chiropractors and Organizations (FSCO) in Clifton, New Jersey have changed their constitution to establish a new class of membership -- emeritus status. The honorary member emeritus status may be granted to those members who have been ruling members for a minimum of five consecutive years, are no longer in full-time active practice, and have distinguished themselves in service, leadership, accomplishment, and/or contribution to the Federation and the straight chiropractic profession.
On April 3, 1995, emeritus status was granted to Drs. Clarence Prill and Wes Trout, both founding members of the FSCO.
