Parker University played host to the 2011 Talk the TIC Finals on July 6, 2011. Talk the TIC is a worldwide annual chiropractic health talk competition between chiropractic students effectively delivering a chiropractic message to others. The purpose is to refine the skill of communicating the principle, science, and knowledge of chiropractic in order to share it with the public. It allows students to practice overcoming their fear of public speaking as well as perfect their explanation of what chiropractic is and what the benefits of chiropractic care are to a lay audience.

The viability of Chiropractic’s future is as vulnerable today as it was back in 1895. The Chiropractic profession has been in a bit of a legislative upheaval over the last few months. Most of the uproar has been initiated by the push for prescription rights in New Mexico.

Dr. Brian McAulay, Executive Vice President and Provost of Life University in Marietta, Georgia was honored during the Annual Association of Chiropractic Colleges/Research Agenda Conference (ACC/RAC), held in Las Vegas, Nevada on March 18. The Presidential Service Citation was awarded by outgoing ACC President and President of New York Chiropractic College, Frank Nicchi, D.C.
