Pump some iron? -- Go for a swim? -- Tennis anyone? -- Flag football? -- How 'bout a game of H-O-R-S-E?
CCCLA students are now able to use athletic facilities at nearby Los Angeles Community College thanks to an agreement sponsored by the CCCLA Student Body Association (SBA). CCCLA students are welcome to use the community college's basketball and tennis courts, football field, running track, weight room, and swimming pool.
Palmer College of Chiropractic West
New Clinic Interns HonoredThe alumni association of Palmer West honored 45 students for the achievement of passing their clinic entrance exam and embarking on the clinical internship portion of their chiropractic education. The quarterly ceremony featured a speech by alumni association President Dr. Cheryl Uhri (PCCW class of 1987), and the traditional PCCW alumni association presentation of clinic jacket lapel pins to the new interns. Joining the ceremony were Dr. Scott DeVoss (class of 1981), and Dr. Sherri Tomlin (class of 1989).
In her address to the new interns, Dr. Uhri said, "See as many patients as you can, challenge yourself, take the most difficult cases. This is a learning experience, take advantage of it."
Count Dracula Calls Blood Drive a Success*
The PCCW associated student body government held their semi-annual Blood Drive January 20th in the college's auditorium. The drive yielded 15 first-time donors, and a total of 49 units of blood donated to the American Red Cross. Loretta Friedman, student council first vice president and the drive's organizer said, "We were pleased by the generous response of the students, faculty, and staff. The Red Cross depends on Palmer West as a reliable source for their blood drive efforts. We hope to do even better the next time."
*Sorry, bad joke -- Thanks go to the blood donors and Loretta Friedman for organizing the ever important blood drives that are a matter of life or death to those in need of a blood transfusion.
