Parker Alumni Association makes final payment in largest ever donation
Not only was the donation the largest in the association’s history, the donation was paid off two years earlier than expected, which helped renovate a lounge and classroom space for the chiropractic interns.
“We are so grateful for the tremendous amount of support that the alumni association gives to the students,” said Dr. Fabrizio Mancini, president of Parker College. “Their contributions play a big role in the students’ lives.”

“It has provided students a place to relax, read patient files, and prepare themselves in order to take care of patients to the best of their ability,” said Timothy Gunn, director of alumni relations at Parker College.
The alumni association will be announcing its 2010 Annual Award recipients in a special luncheon held on Sept. 24, 2010 from 12:30 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Fairmont Hotel in Dallas.
Each year the association honors a few individuals who have made a difference in the chiropractic profession. A few of the past recipients of these awards have been Dr. Lloyd Steffensmier, Dr. Tracy Wilson ’97, Dr. Stephen Thaxton ’91, and Dr. Ronen Mendi ’98. Nominations for the 2010 awards are being accepted until July 1 and nomination forms can be found here.
Membership to the alumni association is open to any chiropractor, chiropractic assistant, patient, or business who wants to support the future of the chiropractic profession.
