One of my favorite traditions at Sherman College is Bagelfest. This is a time to get together as a whole Sherman community and enjoy bagels and discuss various upcoming and current topics. This event typically runs long and is jam-packed with announcements of future events, celebrating our incoming quarter of interns at the health center, and welcoming our first quarter students.
Highlights from the event:
Dr. Cordero shared his travels and the buzz out in the chiropractic community about the things going on at Sherman College.
We welcomed 2 new Case doctors at the health center that were desperately needed.
It is obvious from this event that Sherman students love their teachers. Several teachers reached milestone years of teaching at Sherman. This included Dr. Guangming Wu (5 yr), Ms. Carolyn Best (15 yr), Dr. Bob Irwin (15 yr), Dr. Ron Castellucci (15yr), and Dr. Cindy Gibbon (20 yr). Students clapped and cheered for their favorite teachers. Dr. Ron was also honored with standing ovations as he was voted faculty of the year. Mrs. Kristy Shepherd, admissions, was also honored with standing ovations as she won staff member of the year.
Scholarships given by the financial aid office were awarded in addition to the coveted alumni association scholarship.
Dr. Seay pinned the incoming class of interns
The incoming first quarter class was not introduced. Typically, the first quarter would be introduced one at a time, and they would share basic information about themselves. Many of the lower quarter students (< 6 quarter) were disappointed and frustrated with this change. This time was a great opportunity to learn names and help the new quarter assimilate. It is safe to say I am never going to remember the incoming quarter’s names anymore. However, cutting out this process saved about an hour of time so I can understand the administrations choice to remove the practice.
