Passionate Advocate for ChiropracticFrank E.

So dedicated was he to thechiropractic profession that he traveled to Portland,Oregon, just a month before his death to attend theannual meeting of the ACA House of Delegates, whichhe served as the Northern Illinois delegate since 2003.

The shadows of 2011 are growing long, and soon wewill make an entrance to a new year — 2012. It seemsonly a very short while ago that we were all worriedabout entering this century with all its negativeexpectations, but more than a decade has flown byand we find ourselves in a new era of concern —political concern, economic concern, joblessness,unimaginable national debt (numbers we cannot evenbegin to comprehend), seemingly never-ending war inone part of the world or another, impending failure ofU.S. currency — it seems to go on and on. But one wayor another, 2012 is upon us and we will step throughthat door on January 1 and begin the process again —with every intention of making things better.
Before we get there, let’s take a moment for reflection— the good and the bad, the happy and the sad. Onthe “good” side:
• There were good times with continued growthand expansion of our chiropractic medicineprogram at St. Petersburg College in Pinellas Park,Florida.• We saw completion of the biochemistrylaboratory on our Lombard campus thanks to thegood graces of Standard Process and theirpresident, Charlie Dubois, LLD (h.c.).• We finished complete rehabilitation of alldormitories with Buchholz Hall being finalizedjust recently for occupancy in January.• We are pleased that growth of the student bodyat National, including the chiropractic studentnumbers, has continued even while most otherschools saw a decline, and despite the factthat National remains the only institution thatrequires the baccalaureate for entrance to thechiropractic program.
• Our naturopathic medicine and orientalmedicine programs continue to show growth.• We enjoyed a fine celebration of our 105th yearof existence during our homecoming in June ofthis year, and the Lombard campus continued tobe an oasis of restful beauty in this busy part ofthe country.
During our most recent meeting of the NUHS Boardof Trustees:
• We said goodbye to Drs. Rick Dietzen, AudieKlingler and David Taylor, all of whom haveprovided outstanding service to NationalUniversity.• Elected to the board were Drs. Jane Richards,Greg Hollstrom and Ken Dougherty, colleagueswho will serve diligently, as do all our trustees. Forall this service to National, we are grateful.• The board also approved purchase of a new7,000-square-foot clinic building close to theFlorida campus, a clinic that will be integrated toinclude chiropractic medicine, allopathicmedicine, and likely oriental medicine. This willbe a place for our interns and residents toexperience outstanding clinical experience.
More news on the “happy” side:• We received full accreditation for our master ofscience degree programs in acupuncture andoriental medicine, and full accreditation ofour program in chiropractic medicine at theFlorida campus.• We moved into a new building in Florida thathouses the clinical sciences division of the DCprogram there.• Our training and assessment centers in bothLombard and Florida are now completely outfittedwith digital systems that allow us to observe andrecord interaction with our interns and theirstandardized patients.• To add to the “happiness” is the outstandingparticipation by practicing chiropractic physiciansin our Master of Science in Advanced ClinicalPractice degree program. Our graduates haverepeatedly told me that this program has been a“game changer” for them.
On the “bad side” of this year were formal complaintslodged against NUHS with the Council onChiropractic Education (CCE) by the InternationalChiropractor’s Association (ICA) and the GeorgiaCouncil of Chiropractic (GCC). It is the contention ofthese organizations that our CCE accreditation shouldbe revoked because we use the term “chiropracticmedicine,” which the GCC refers to as an “oxymoron.”We responded to this complaint and CCE ruled in ourfavor. The complainants have now appealed thatdecision. I continue to be amazed at the regressiveattitude of some in the profession who apparently failto recognize that our profession along with those ofallopathy, osteopathy and naturopathy are all part ofthe larger whole referred to as “medicine.” We shallprevail in this inane argument against rational thinking.
Sadly, we also lost some great friends this year:• Our own unique and special Dr. Frank Strehl,chiropractic physician, internist extraordinaire,ACA delegate, faculty member at NationalUniversity of Health Sciences and honorary chairof the President’s Alumni Advisory Council,passed away after a gallant fight. What a sad andunexpected loss to all of us.• Dr. Shellee Handley, former clinician and mostrecently our dean of institutional analysis, was lostin a completely unexpected accident during amotorcycle ride she enjoyed every autumn.• Lincoln alumnus, Dr. Bob Book, who for manyyears practiced in Grand Cayman, and who wasperhaps the first chiropractic physician to enjoythat privilege, passed away in Florida.
We miss those colleagues and we share the grief oftheir families.
Despite the undesirable things that happen and oursadness over the loss of friends and colleagues, this hasbeen another good year for our alma mater, which isreason enough for counting and appreciating theprivileges we enjoy. Still, there is more. We still havethe blessing of helping others who are in pain, or inpoor health — people who often have sought helpfrom others with no success only to be blessed by carefrom our alumni. We look upon our world with all itscurrent negatives and simultaneously take comfort inthe fact that we are able to do what we have beentaught to do as chiropractic physicians from National.Let’s concentrate on the blessings, and let’s rememberto share our blessings with our alma mater.

The Privileges We EnjoyBy James F. Winterstein, DCNUHS President

Invest in Your Alma Mater & Your ProfessionDear Colleagues,
"The great man is he who plants shade trees he willnever sit under."
— A.N. Whitehead
What did the philosopher Whitehead truly mean? AsI reflected on those words while watching my twochildren, I believe I finally understood that life is aboutdoing the things that will have tremendous impact onthose who follow. I am certain each of you have plansand dreams for your children and are implementingprograms that will live far beyond yourself throughyour children and grandchildren. Isn’t that samethinking one we should apply to our profession?
My task is challenging because I want to thank each ofyou who continue to be members of the President’sClub International (PCI), but I do not want to offendby thanking you. I believe you do not continue toparticipate for personal thanks but rather for a causegreater than yourself. To those who have recentlybecome PCI contributors, I want to simplyacknowledge the satisfaction you have obviouslyexperienced by becoming a PCI participant.
As I was writing this message to you I found myselfreflecting on the chiropractic profession of years pastand the importance of the involvement of thosewho came before us and the impact they had oneach of us.
Perhaps as a younger chiropractor I had an advantageor maybe an albatross, having grown up in achiropractic family. I recall many evenings when myfather would have several colleagues over strategizingon how to advance the chiropractic profession. Theywere committed to the point where associationmeetings and homecomings were referred to as“family vacations”! Granted, back in the ‘60s and ‘70sthe mission was maybe a bit more obvious — theyneeded to forge strong alliances and organizethemselves for survival. Through hard work anddetermination, those early dedicated pioneers instate and national organizations accomplishedinsurmountable goals for the future of chiropractic, forthose who would benefit from utilizing chiropractic,and for those who would seek chiropractic as a career.These struggles were not accomplished withoutsignificant sacrifices of both personal time andpersonal financial resources. They did what they hadto do for the future of the profession.
So what does this all have to do with PCI? Well, I amhopeful that our generation will be able to capture theessence of what it means to make a commitment — toplant that tree under which we will never sit. I want totry to convey to those who are current PCI supportersthat your personal sacrifice and unselfish dedicationwill enable those who walk after us to understandwhat it means to truly commit to the vision oftomorrow — to realize that what we do is not amonetary gift for the moment but rather an investmentfor the future.
Let’s set an example for the students of NUHS and ourfuture colleagues that state, national and alumnicontributions are not just nice gestures, but rathernecessary “investments” and commitments to theprofession in order for us to thrive on both a personaland global level. I look forward to speaking to more ofyou at homecoming and welcoming those of you whomake the commitment to the PCI family!
Together we will leave a legacy.

New Donor Center Unveiled
The newly remodeled Janse main hallway now boasts a colorful new addition — the National University of Health SciencesDonor Center. The center replaces the amphitheatre as the main focal point of National University’s gratitude to its manygenerous donors. Previously, donors were acknowledged on specially engraved bricks in the university’s outdoor amphitheatre.The outdoor location, however, made it difficult for students and visitors to locate donors’ names as well as appreciate thelarge number of contributors, especially in inclement weather.
The center celebrates those who have given from $5,000 to more than $100,000 to the university. The many donors includealumni, grateful patients, faculty and staff, corporations and institutions serving the health professions, and other friends whosupport National University’s educational mission and goals. The special design allows the display to be updated on an annualbasis to reflect higher levels of giving and new patrons.
“Placing the Donor Center in the Janse building’s main hallway allows our students to better appreciate the many people whomake their education possible,” says President James F. Winterstein. “Without the financial support of the individuals namedin this display, we simply could not offer the high quality of education that we do, nor the tuition support for the many studentswe are able to assist.”
