CMCC Begins Presidential Search
With President Dr. David Wickes set to retire on June 30, 2024, Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC) has begun its search for the next president of the college. The CMCC Board of Governors announced it will conduct an extensive national and international search and has aligned with Feldman Daxon Partners, an executive search firm. The board is also appointing a search committee consisting of board members, administrators, faculty, staff, students, and other stakeholders.
“As Chair of the Board of Governors, I thank and commend Dave for his exceptional vision and relentless energy, which have elevated our institution to unprecedented levels of excellence and distinction,” said Board of Governors Chair, Dr. Greg Woolfrey. “He and his leadership team made our institution stronger than ever, earning the respect and admiration of the chiropractic profession and the higher education community.”
National Chiropractic Health Month
“Chiropractic: Relieve, Restore, Resume” is the theme of this year’s National Chiropractic Health Month, held annually each October. As explained by the American Chiropractic Association, during NCHM “chiropractors will raise awareness of chronic pain and chiropractic’s evidence-based, patient-centered non-drug approach, encouraging those who have been sidelined by MSK pain to consider chiropractic care as a way to relieve their pain, restore function, and resume the activities that matter most.”
TCC President Honored
Texas Chiropractic College President, Dr. Stephen Foster, received the William D. Harper Award at the college’s recent homecoming convention. The award, which “recognizes individuals who exemplify a deep commitment to the college while embracing the role of science in chiropractic,” is named after Dr. William D. Harper Jr., an engineer, chiropractor and author of Anything Can Cause Anything, who served as president of TCC from 1965-76.
“Dr. Foster has been instrumental in instilling a culture of academic excellence and scientific advancement at Texas Chiropractic College,” said Dawn Schwab, chairman of the TCC Board of Regents. “His commitment to the institution and his advocacy for the integration of science and chiropractic make him a deserving recipient of the Harper Award.”
