The Urban League Visits New York Chiropractic College

Dr. Kenneth W. Padgett, president of New York Chiropractic College, welcomed Ms. Rosemary Durant Giles and a group of young adults from the Urban League of Long Island's Adolescent Vocational Exploration (AVE) Program. The purpose of AVE is to encourage early academic preparation for long-term professional goals. Following a tour of the Old Brookville Campus, the AVE participants were given an opportunity to learn about the chiropractic profession.

The tour concluded with a round-table discussion led by Dr. Mark Feldman, associate director for Institutional Advancement. As both an instructor and field practitioner, Dr. Feldman was able to offer the young people a realistic view of chiropractic education and the chiropractic profession.

Mr. Giles remarked, "The visit to NYCC was a very impressive experience for the young adults who visited the college. It's programs like this that act as a bootstrap in keeping our young students honing in on their professional goal. I was very impressed with the manner in which the professional staff at NYCC undertook to impress upon the young adults why they should consider chiropractic as a possible career goal."
