Physical Therapy DPT

Thursday night WKBN’s 10 p.m. News covered a story about a problem within the Physical Therapy department regarding their DPT program accreditation. After watching the story I became curious and investigated a bit more.

Students unfamiliar with this story can see the initial news report transcript here [via WKBN.com].

I phoned the Provost office first and was forwarded. After being forwarded I was able to discuss the issue, at-length, with Ron Cole–who was interviewed for the segment that aired Thursday night. After this discussion I was sufficiently satisfied with the efforts of the University concerning this issue. It is an unfortunate turn of events, but I don’t think Student Government Association has a bona fide place in resolving further problems regarding the DPT accreditation delay.

Students who want to know more about what was discussed or things that I might have overlooked in my investigation can contact SGA to setup a meeting with me.
