ICA Council on Chiropractic Philosophy Diplomate Graduation

The second class of Diplomates in Philosophical Chiropractic Standards (DPhCS) graduated at Sherman College of Chiropractic, October 17 in conjunction with the IRAPS conference held at the college. This graduation ceremony marked the pinnacle of their achievement after completing 320 hours of post graduate philosophical study in "philosophical chiropractic standards." The new graduates commenced  their new status as "Philosophers of Chiropractic" by taking the DPhCS oath with past DPhCS members in attendance standing behind them, reaffirming their own pledge with a hand on the new graduates shoulder. This gesture was symbolic of the continuity and synergy of the program, to deliver Chiropractic Philosophy "unsullied, to this and future generations." Congratulations to all on this most distinguished accomplishment.
