Logan College Meets the Challenge -- and Then Some

Largest Grant in School's History
Editorial Staff

In the Nov. 5, 1993 issue of "DC," we reported the 75,000 matching funds challenge offered to Logan College of Chiropractic by William Harris, DC, president of the Foundation for the Advancement of Chiropractic Education (FACE). Logan needed to raise $75,000 in cash (not pledges) by December 15, 1993 to receive the matching funds from FACE.

By the Dec. 15th deadline, Logan had not only met the challenge, but exceeded it by $52,337 and change. The $127,337.91 raised by Logan from alumni and friends of the college, and the $75,000 from FACE will go toward Logan's endowment fund. (For those of you who hate doing math, that's $202,337.91.)

"We are very grateful to the Foundation for offering this challenge," said Logan President Dr. George Goodman, crediting Dr. William Harris with motivating the college and its supporters to exceed all fundraising expectations.

Because they have yet to pass national legislation protecting the chiropractic profession, Japanese DCs are in a similar situation that U.S. DCs faced. We were fortunate enough to be able to pass chiropractic licensure state by state. The DCs in Japan must accomplish this nationally, which has proved to be an extremely difficult task. And in spite of their efforts, Japanese DCs are currently faced with two chiropractic professions.

Chiropractic at Risk Globally
Chiropractic at Risk Globally

There has long been an attempt by those who are not legitimate doctors of chiropractic to usurp the title of chiropractor from those who have earned their degree from an accredited chiropractic program. This generally happens in countries where the local doctors of chiropractic have yet to pass legislation requiring a degree from an accredited institution. The result is essentially two chiropractic professions. Nowhere is this danger more pronounced than in Japan.
