Life University Receives Injunction

By Michael Dorausch, D.C.

Life University today received a court ordered injunction that will continue to allow them to graduate chiropractic students. About eighty students that were in their final quarter and had not received their chiropractic diploma will be affected immediately by this decision. According to a Life board member, they may now receive their diplomas.

According to news reports, not only has Life University temporarily regained its accreditation status, but it has had it reinstated for the eight months it was revoked. Students that remained faithful to their school and stuck it out in Atlanta are back on track.

Life university contends that the CCE’s decision to revoke its standing is politically motivated. Various news reports have stated, “Life adheres to a philosophy that maintains a division between chiropractors and physicians.”

According to reports, the CCE claims its decision was not political and was based on academic and management deficiencies, including Lifes’ methods of instruction in diagnosis.

Several news sources reported, “The issues included diagnostic instruction — how students are taught to determine if a patient can be treated through chiropractic care or should be referred to a medical doctor…”

Any chiropractor, regardless of their philosophical or chiropractic educational background, knows that the issue of diagnoses in chiropractic IS political.
