Read this kudo from a September 2006 Trimester Onestudent about a pair of National graduates. I chose

National because my two favorite chiropractors aregraduates of National. In my lifetime, I have seen sevenchiropractors... Of all these, chiropractors, the onesfrom National were the best... They conducted themost thorough exams, spent the most time with me(the patient), and had the best technique for adjustingmy spinal column. The experiences I had with thesetwo individuals were the most positive experiences Ihave ever had with a chiropractor.

And another tribute from a Tri One student: I havelooked into many schools in the field. I have alsoconsulted doctors working in this field forrecommendations as to which school I should attend.Surprisingly, all the doctors and patients that I talked

with recommended me to do some research on NUHS. Also, all the chiropractors that I talked toactually graduated from National and had given me alot of good comments about NUHS, including: greatcurriculum, small classes, excellent professors that arehelpful and friendly.

For the names of alumni who have referred students inour September 2006 class, please see page 7. Will yourname be there in our next issue?

To Give to freely devote, set aside, or sacrificefor a purpose.

As the end of Nationals Centennial Year appears onthe horizon, we are taking the opportunity to extendour gratitude to all who have helped make thisspecial year an outstanding success. As you readthese pages, you will see how many alumni andfriends of National have freely devoted, set aside orsacrificed for a purpose.

I think there are two components of that definitionthat are especially important to the person whochooses to give to something or for something. Firstis the word freely. People who do not give freelyfind themselves in a circumstance of innerresentment after the gift is given and those gifts,

while helping the recipient, do not warm the heartof the giver.

Gibran, the author of the little book titled TheProphet, says that God speaks through the hands ofthose who give freely as the myrtle breathes itsfragrance into space, and from behind their eyes, Hesmiles upon the earth.

Well, my friends, all who are listed in the followingpages are people through whose hands God speaksand from behind whose eyes, He smiles upon the

earth. You are indeed special people.

The second part of the definition that is important,as I see it, is for a purpose. People give for apurpose. Yes, it is true that gifts given to Nationalare tax deductible, but that is not, I hope, the

primary purpose behind the giving. My purpose,and I expect yours, too, is that we share theawareness of the purpose of this wonderfulinstitution we know as National.

National is a century old, and as such has earned aposition of honor, trust and nobility. It hasexpressed its purpose, which for many years was theteaching of people who were to become chiropractic

physicians. After about the first 15 years of thispurpose, National expanded its purposes to includethe teaching of naturopathic physicians, doctors ofdrugless therapy, doctors of mechanotherapy,massage therapists, and nurses.

In later years, nearing the half-century mark, theprofessional and political pressures of the timecaused National to once again narrow its purposesto chiropractic education alone.

Now, since 2000, National has once again expandedits horizons and, upon becoming a university, hasre-instituted the teaching of massage therapy andnaturopathic medicine and has added acupunctureand oriental medicine. Throughout these years ofchange, National has always maintained a clearpurpose and a clear posture on how it wouldeducate that is always mandating the highestquality and always promoting excellence. Its motto

would always remain the same Esse quam videri,which is to be rather than to seem to be.

Those of you who have given freely to National havealso, I believe, been aware of and supportive of thepurposes of National, and through you, God hasspoken to thousands and millions of sick andsuffering who sought the services of our graduates,and yes, through your eyes, God has smiled uponthose many people. If the work of National ishonorable, noble and trustworthy, then in double

measure, so is yours for providing the financialsupport that helps make National what it is.

Now there are some who have not chosen toparticipate in the opportunity to give and no doubtthere are some who have no choice for a variety ofreasons. Still, some just have not taken the time toconsider the circumstance or, for some reason, havedecided that National is not a cause or purpose that

should be supported. I wonder about that, ofcourse. National gave every one of us who is agraduate our ability to serve humanity and throughthat process, to make a living. Yes, we paid ourtuition, but at least for the past 20 years during

which I have been president, tuition has onlycovered between 62 and 73% of the cost ofeducating our graduates. The difference has to comefrom someone or somewhere. One of the sources isthe multitude of people listed elsewhere in thispublication. Sadly, those people represent onlyabout 5% of our graduates.

As an alumnus, I feel rather hurt that only 5% of ourgraduates choose to give back to National, while38% of Nationals employees give back. I amhoping that many of you will give this considerationand will choose to support the purposes of Nationalby giving freely through one of our givingmechanisms. These include giving clubs, outright

one-time gifts, gifts to scholarships, or the placementof National in ones will.

My friend said it so well this morning. She saidgiving warms the heart on a cold day. She said itso well that it became the title of this piece. Shespeaks from experience as a member of thePresident's Cabinet Internationale, and along with38% of the employees of National, she gives freelyand for a purpose. Won't you join us? It will warmyour heart on the cold days to come.

Giving Back? Why Should I? Many Reasons! ManyDear Alumni:

Based upon what I have heard, I suspect that manyof you stop and think, Why should I give to theNational University of Health Sciences?

There are many reasons why we dont give. One Ihear is, I work harder and see more patientsand have less income. Another is, Our fees havebeen lowered. Yet another one is, Whathas National done from me? And lastly, Theyhave changed the name of our alma mater so it isnot really a chiropractic college anymore.

These are some of the excuses that I hear for notbeing able to help National University of HealthSciences. We need to change this way of thinkingand develop more positive attitudes and decidewhat we can do for National.

I think we should be thankful to National for gettingus where we are. Many of us lead comfortable lives,

thanks to the education that National provided, and itis important to remember that our tuition onlycovered approximately 70% of the total cost of oureducation.

Many times, when we have particular questions, welooked to National for specific answers. Many of ourBoards of Examiners have always looked to National,because National has the top expertise with regard tolegislative matters. When something arises in Washington, D.C. with respect to chiropractic andthey need a model, whom do they come to? Theycome to National! Many times, National has beenthe focus of helping others, whether they are

graduates, colleagues, legislators, or friends ofchiropractic.

National always takes the lead and will always be aleading educational institution. I am asking you tobe part of this leading team. Even small amounts will grow into large amounts, and allow theuniversity to continue to be the leader of the future.

There are several different wour university, with differthat each and every one of yoAs of this date, only 5% of university, yet almost 40%staffmake financial contrib

Lets change this around! Tthe negative; lets looside and help to make surthe forefront. I am challengof you to look into your hea priority. Please contact Tof the Office of Alumni Serv

at tmchugh@nuhs.edu so develop a giving plan.

By Fraser Smith, NDDepartment Chair

A total of five students have started their studies thistrimester in NUHS' new Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine (ND) Degree Program, and more havealready applied for future trimesters as far ahead asSeptember 2007.

The program will lead to an ND credential and hassimilarities to its chiropractic counterpart. NUHSalumni would recognize many aspects of the NDprogram as similar to their own education. Part of the

reason for this is that both professional practicesrequire grounding in the basic sciences, extensivetraining in diagnosis, and a broad range oftherapeutics.

Naturopathic medicine encompasses the use oftreatments such as nutrition, botanical medicine,homeopathy, physical medicine, and others. Invarying degrees, these are already a part of the DCprogram at NUHS. The length of the two programsis similar as well 10 trimesters full time. Graduateswrite board exams, in this case, administered by theNorth American Board of Naturopathic Examiners(NABNE) via the Naturopathic Physicians LicensingExaminations (NPLEX).

In some areas, the two programs are distinct. Forsure, the DC program has much more extensivemanipulative therapy and radiology. The NDprogram has more botanical medicine andhomeopathy. The DC program spends more classtime on subjects such as rehabilitation. The ND

program examines the management of chronic casesand how to purposefully integrate several therapies.

In the first several trimesters, the DC and NDstudents will share their basic sciences. As the NDstudents progress, they will, of course, spend more oftheir time doing specialty courses, but will still sharesome content with their DC peers, even through theeighth trimester. Aside from the staging of thesecourses, the naturopathic department and theuniversity will be very focused on the project ofachieving recognition with the Council onNaturopathic Medical Education (CNME). This is amulti-stage process that involves maturation of theprogram, feedback and improvement.

Currently, NUHS has been given the green light toconduct a self-study of the ND program; thisfollowed CNME's acceptance of NUHS' formalapplication in the summer of 2006. A self-studyfollowed by further evaluation is a necessary steptowards the goal of candidacy status. With candidacystatus, graduates can sit for those NPLEX boardexams and then practice. Just the goal of achievingCNME candidacy is a very involved process, butNUHS is coming into this with the resources of anestablished institution that has been turning out gooddoctors for a long time. You cant overestimate theways in which this propels a new program forward.

Already, there have been serious inquiries frompracticing chiropractic physicians, including NUHSalumni about obtaining an ND. Those who do apply

will receive advanced standing for their work in basicscience, especially those who have attended a programlike that of NUHS, which has extensive education inthis area. Like all ND, DC, MD, or DO programs,this would be full or near full-time and on site (versuscorrespondence or web-based).

There are two things that will push this programforward. One is that as the first ND class moves along

By Dr. Patricia CoeMT Clinic Supervisor

As part of the massage therapy certificate program,

massage interns enrolled in clinic are required toparticipate in outcall (off-campus) events. During the

summer and fall trimesters, NUHS interns

volunteered to perform massages on participatingathletes at two major events.

July 2006 saw Chicago hosting Gay Games VII. Despite

record-breaking heat, NUHS massage students as well asalumni volunteered their time to perform 630 sports

massages over the course of five days. NUHS was invitedto be the sole provider for massage therapy at the Oak

Park Village where the interns days were virtuallynon-stop upon arrival. Although the wait for massage was

sometimes over an hour, many athletes made return visits to the NUHS tent throughout the week. One

gold medalist told me that the massages he received

during the week from his therapist were what enabledhim to continue to compete.

Jerrilyn Cambron, DC,

enrolled at the time in herthird trimester of the

NUHS Massage Therapycertificate program, performed

massage at the Gay Gamesas part of her clinical

internship. The Gay Gamesallowed us the opportunity

to interact with a variety

of people and to practice oursports massage techniques.

All the students were wellprepared because of the

excellent educational experience with our sports massage

instructor, Joe Adkins.

Joe Adkins, who has been teaching sports massage at

NUHS since 2005, not only provided essentialtraining for these students, he assisted me with

supervising at the event as well as performingmassages during the busiest times of day.

and gets into more advanced clinical courses, there

will be a point where DC alumni of NUHS wouldfind the curriculum adds to their knowledge. These

new courses will unfold in the next couple of years asthe first group finishes up with their basic science

time. The second reason is that achieving candidacystatus with CNME, something we would like to

achieve within the next couple years, will increase

enrollment overall.

My special thanks to all NUHS massage faculty

members who volunteered their time to assist withsupervising interns: Joe Adkins, Marcia Brandes,

Barb Malik and Candy Washington. More kudos stillto our alumni who volunteered their time to work as

part of the NUHS massage team: Beverly Basit, KristenCompton, Earnest Mounce, Susan OConnor-Chadwick,

Krista Soli, Delilah Stewart, Charl Woolsey and Linda

Zagroba.

Unlike the July Gay Games, October 2006 saw coldand wind and rain for the Chicago Marathon. This

year, seven massage therapy interns volunteered aSunday morning to travel downtown to perform 83

post-event sports massages. This is the sixth time inseven years that NUHS interns have performed

massage at the Chicago Areas Runners Association

tent. Part-time faculty Sandy Pearce supervised theinterns who were in demand virtually non-stop from

11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
