Interns Join the Health Center
Thirty-two interns are now ready to serve the community and see patients at the Sherman College Chiropractic Health Center, a teaching clinic for senior students in their final stage of internship prior to graduation from the doctor of chiropractic program.
Interns celebrated the entrance of this final phase of their chiropractic education on January 21 during a pinning ceremony on the Sherman College campus, located at 2020 Springfield Road in Spartanburg. The college also streamed the event live on Facebook so interns’ family and friends could watch from afar.

Dr. Attaway Guest Lectures
on the Brain at Oakbook Prep
Associate Professor of Basic Sciences Dr. Samantha Attaway visited Oakbrook Preparatory School earlier this month as a guest lecturer. Dr. Attaway visited seventh-grade life science classes to teach students about the brain and has been invited to return to work with students in AP anatomy and physiology courses.
Oakbrook Preparatory School was founded in 1992 and, over the years, has expanded its curriculum from 3K to grade 12. As a non-denominational school, Oakbrook Prep strives to develop innovative thinkers and leaders for the 21st century. Students are also encouraged to learn through international exchange programs. Dr. Attaway's daughter attends Oakbrook and is in seventh grade.

Remembering First Female
Graduate Dr. Virginia Brannon
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the loss of Dr. Virginia Brannon. She was a trailblazer, a sweet and caring soul, a member of the Pioneer Class of 1976, and a life-long supporter of Sherman College of Chiropractic. Dr. Brannon was also Sherman College's first female graduate.
In lieu of flowers, the family has asked for memorials be given to Sherman College to start a scholarship in Dr. Brannon's memory. You can contribute here to the scholarship in her name.
