Well everyone, it's finally that time in the program that we've
all been waiting for -- Registration Week in 7th Trimester -- when
students frantically log on, racing the clock, and selecting the
clinician that they are going to be working with for the last year
of their education. We've speculated over this day since we entered
the DC program, dreaming of being in clinic and reaching the end of
this long educational journey. Finally, we're able to apply all the
hours of studying, practicing adjusting, and practical examinations
to good use. This registration process has been highly anticipated,
and I know that everyone is looking forward to it being over.
NUHS has clinic locations on our campus in Lombard, in Aurora, in downtown Chicago, and also at a
non-profit clinic in a
Salvation Army store in the city. Among these four locations, there
are eight clinicians to select from when choosing where to complete
your internship. I chose to visit and observe at the Salvation Army
clinic downtown earlier in this trimester, which is part of the
application process to be an intern at this location. After
completing the remainder of the interview and application process,
I am excited to say that I have been chosen to complete my
internship at the Salvation Army Clinic for 2015!
I am both so humbled and excited to be an incoming intern under
Dr. Erin Quinlan. Working at the Salvation Army clinic will be a
very unique and eye-opening experience, and I am ready for the
challenge! I have always found myself drawn to helping those in
underserved populations and those that are less fortunate than
others, and I know I will gain so much from this experience.
I've also decided to really get the full Chicago experience and
move to the city for my last year of school! I'm moving to the
Lincoln Park neighborhood, just north of downtown and right next to
Lake Michigan, a perfect area for a young professional student such
as myself. With so many changes ahead, I'm looking forward to
enjoying my last few weeks of this trimester and then relaxing at
home in Ohio over winter break.
Lambda Chi Sorority is a social and educational club at NUHS
designed for female students in both the chiropractic and
naturopathic programs. Once a week, we meet after class to learn
and practice adjustments with Dr. Terry Elder, one of the professors of
our technique classes and a national instructor for Motion
Palpation Institute. Toward the end of the trimester, the club
brings in various speakers from the community and university,
educating us on different topics such as sports medicine, pediatric
adjusting, opening up your own practice, or even just the current
state of the chiropractic profession. For the past year, I have
been the president of Lambda Chi and have had an array of
responsibilities each trimester. I have finally reached the
bittersweet end of a very rewarding leadership position, but I am
excited to pass on my duties to the next group of officers!
The current group of officers finished off our term with a big
bang of events! We started out our week by hosting Dr. Joseph Stiefel,
the president of National University of Health Sciences, as our
speaker. He brought our members up to speed on the state of the
university, current renovations taking place on our campus, an
assessment of our school's performance of board scores, and an
overview of the direction that the chiropractic profession is
moving. On Wednesday night, the outgoing and incoming sorority
officers met at Kona Grill for our officer transition dinner,
where we passed on our binders of instructions, gave suggestions
and words of advice, and enjoyed a nice meal together.
Our 3rd Annual Mr. NUHS Competition was held on Thursday in the
gymnasium. The event showcased eight terrific male students who
competed in categories of clinic attire, beach attire, and a
talent/lip sync performance. Our four judges consisted of both
faculty/staff members and last year's reigning Mr. NUHS, Taronte.
Based on the judges' scores and the popular vote of audience
participation, we crowned Tom Blum as the 2014-2015 Mr. NUHS! Tom
performed a terrific rendition of "Let It Go" from the hit Disney
movie Frozen, and the gymnasium was filled with laughter
and confetti as the song went on. This event served as both a fun
school-wide function open to all students as well as a great fund
raiser for Lambda Chi.
Beach Attire Category
Friday night was an opportunity for all of our members to relax
and unwind at our end-of-the-trimester event held at Brickhouse Tavern and Tap. The girls enjoyed
appetizers, drinks, and a chance to sit back and socialize with
each other. This was also the last big event held by the current
club officers, so it served as an unofficial transition back to
being simply a member of the club, rather than a leader. I am
excited to say that I'm finally relieved of my duties as president
of Lambda Chi Sorority!
Mr. NUHS - Tom Blum
I hope everyone has a great end to July! Enjoy what's left of
summer! :)
When you spend 5 days a week inside of a classroom, it's hard to
remember what's going on outside in the "real world." I always joke
that professional school is a perfect transition from college into
true adulthood. Many of us students still have the opportunity to
learn every day and work toward our dream careers, yet we still
don't quite have the full responsibilities of adulthood such as
taxes, mortgages, or supporting a family.
Some weekends, I sit and gaze out the library windows, wondering
what all my friends are doing on a beautiful sunny day. I sometimes
feel as though I'm missing out on the "grown-up things" people are
doing back home, and I definitely am a little envious of the free
weeknights and weekends that those in the working world enjoy.
None-the-less, I always take a step back and reflect on how
fortunate I am to be in this rewarding program, and then things
don't seem so bad. I'm in the company of other great people going
through the same challenges of exams and practicals. Once midterms
are over in a couple weeks, I'll be able to enjoy more of the pool,
the warm weather, and the sunshine of summer. :)
This trimester has flown by, and it's already half over. Most of
my time lately has been spent studying, reading, and occasionally
working. One of the biggest highlights of this past week was the
Big/Little Reveal Night we held for Lambda Chi Sorority. This is my
last tri as president, so I wanted to begin a small but memorable
tradition for the next officers to carry on.
The purpose of the Big/Little mentor/mentee program is to offer
younger students the opportunity to ask questions about classes,
board exams, clinic experiences, and other various aspects of the
program. We believe that the ladies of our sorority would benefit
from having a role model in their same program, and so we began the
Big/Little tradition.
One night after our weekly sorority meeting with Dr. Elder, we
had the younger members participate in a scavenger hunt for clues,
and then everyone met their Bigs! I hope the girls had a great time
meeting their new mentors and are looking forward to maintaining
this professional and fun connection with another student in their
I hope everyone has a great week ahead! Happy 4th of July!

Register now for the 8th annual MobileBeat, July 13-14, where the best and brightest will be exploring the latest strategies and tactics in the mobile space. Condé Nast-owned news aggregator Reddit announced today that the site had more than 1 billion pageviews in January. But Reddit's growth didn't just come from the site's typical role as a news aggregator. Reddit's sub-communities, which focus on a specific topic or theme, have become increasingly popular as well. It seems Reddit isn't necessarily just about bringing news to its community members any more. That function is still a very large part of the site, as posts about the protests in Egypt and Canada's looming metered Internet billing littered the front page over the weekend. But the Reddit crew has seen a lot of success outside the website as well — they launched a successful "Secret Santa" campaign that included 17,000 Reddit users from 90 countries exchanging gifts. Most cities have their own active Reddit communities as well. Reddit also recently hosted an "awards ceremony" of sorts for its top sub-communities and users. Winners included a community that posts poorly-drawn comics about daily rage-inducing events to ridiculously complex military escapades involving a dog in a fort made from couch pillows. The "novelty account of the year" award was given to a user who replies and comments with quickly drawn images. Those are pretty good numbers for a site that was seen second to news aggregator Digg for a long time. That was until Digg decided to remake the site and kill a number of features, leading to a mass exodus. Quantcast, a traffic research company, indicates that Digg now has 8.2 million unique visitors, down from nearly 16 million unique visitors in August before the latest version of Digg was released. Reddit boasts nearly 14 million unique visitors, according to the numbers it released today. Reddit certainly isn't shy when it comes to disclosing its traffic data. The site did a "state of the union" style post on its blog in January that disclosed its monthly traffic — around 829 million monthly pageviews, from 250 million pageviews a year earlier. Reddit has about 10 employees working from San Francisco, New York, Salt Lake City and Los Angeles. It was founded by Alexis Ohanian, who sold the service to Condé Nast and went on to work with travel site Hipmunk (a favorite of VentureBeat's Anthony Ha). VB's research team is studying mobile user acquisition: Chime in here, and we'll share the results.
