Sherman’s Vice President for Planning, Assessment and Enrollment Services Laura Chadwick Weeks, D.C., has been elected to the Commission on Accreditation of the Council on Chiropractic Education (COA/CCE) for a three-year term which began in January. Weeks was elected as the Commission’s CCE accredited program employee representative.

The COA/CCE enforces and interprets the Council on Chiropractic standards, determining if colleges meet the standards. The commission also organizes and serves on accreditation site visit teams.

College President Jon Schwartzbauer, D.C., says the college is honored to have a Sherman representative on the Commission, “We are pleased to have one of our own alumni and administrators recognized and included on this distinguished committee. Dr. Weeks’ election to this post is a reflection of her commitment and service to the chiropractic profession and her dedication to promoting excellence in chiropractic education.”

Weeks previously served the COA executive committee as chair from 2003-2006 and served COA member terms from 2000-2003 and 2006-2007. She is a member of the South Carolina Women in Higher Education Administration. Prior to her appointment as vice president for planning, assessment and enrollment, she served the college as vice president for academic affairs and as dean of chiropractic health services. She is a 1990 graduate of Sherman College.
