FSCO offers scholarship money

All chiropractic students eligible

The Federation of Straight Chiropractors and Organizations (FSCO), pleased to have given away tens of thousands of dollars to students over the years through the John Stachurski Memorial Scholarship program, will this year be giving away thousands more.

Chiropractic students from any chiropractic college are eligible to receive this money and compete for several prizes, simply by writing a brief statement about a relevant chiropractic topic. This year, students explain their current involvement in the profession and share their vision for practice after graduation.

The scholarship program is just one of many ways the FSCO continues its commitment to protecting and promoting the non‑therapeutic approach to the correction of vertebral subluxation.

"Assisting our students is one of the greatest things we can do to benefit our profession," said Dr. David McGonagle, chair of the FSCO Scholarship Committee. "We recognize how critical students are to the future of our profession and to the ability of all people to receive the care that is so desperately needed throughout the world."

Students interested in specific details should check with their school's financial aid office for information. The FSCO may also be contacted directly at 800/521‑9856 or by going to the FSCO website at www.straightchiropractic.org. Entries must be e‑mailed or postmarked by Sept. 15, 2003.
