When I graduated from chiropractic college in 1981 and started practice, I heard it all, and very little was positive. “You are a quack; you do not know what a subluxation is; you couldn’t get into a real health care program, so you chose the one that is slightly above a mail-order degree; you have no proof that chiropractic works; Are you really licensed?”, and so much more.

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.
