Sherman College of Chiropractic is pleased to welcome two distinguished leaders to the Board of Trustees: Dr. Liam Schübel and Dr. Scott Garber. Their appointments began on May 3, 2025, during governance orientation. Both will serve a four-year term through May 2, 2029.

Dr. Schübel, returning to the Board after previously serving two full terms from 2009 to 2017, brings a wealth of experience and a deep connection to the Sherman mission. Dr. Garber, a respected leader in the chiropractic profession, joins the Board with a proven dedication to principled chiropractic care and service.

We are grateful for the insight, energy, and leadership they bring to the Sherman College Board of Trustees. Their commitment to the profession and to the college is both known and deeply appreciated.

At the same time, we offer our heartfelt thanks to Dr. Shawn Dill, who concluded his board service after two consecutive terms from May 2017 to May 2025, including time as chair. We are deeply appreciative of his steady leadership and lasting contributions to Sherman College.

Sherman College of Chiropractic is hosting two recruitment events in Puerto Rico in June. These events provide an excellent opportunity for prospective students to meet members of the admissions team, ask questions, and learn more about a rewarding career in chiropractic.

The first event will be held on Wednesday, June 18, at the Aloft Hotel in Ponce, followed by a second event on Friday, June 20, at the Campo Bravo Restaurant at Rio Bayamon Golf Club. Both sessions run from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm and include light refreshments.

These in-person events are part of Sherman’s ongoing commitment to building connections in diverse communities and welcoming students from across the globe. Sherman has a strong tradition of supporting Puerto Rican students, and we’re excited to continue fostering interest in chiropractic education throughout the island.

If you know someone in Puerto Rico who is curious about chiropractic or considering their next step in education, we invite you to share this opportunity with them. Space is limited, so early registration is encouraged.

To reserve a spot or learn more, please contact Rolando Rivera at rrivera@sherman.edu or call (787) 603-0493.
