Happy Halloween!! I am pretty sure I have overdosed on pumpkin
this weekend!! It all started with breakfast this morning being
pumping pancakes… followed by pumpkin carving, pumpkin seed
roasting and pumpkin pie baking! Now, I am enjoying the glow of my
pumpkin on the porch while watching scary movies! I normally
absolutely detest scary movies but 'tis the season! Halloween has
always been one of my favorite holidays and I fully enjoyed it this
year!

Clinic News
A group of students from a local high school came to visit
National this past week to learn about alternative medicine. An
intern from the chiropractic program, and intern from the
acupuncture and oriental medicine program, and one of my fellow
clinic interns from the naturopathic program presented on our
respective programs and what each of the professions can do for
patients. Many students were fascinated about the naturopathic
program and wanted more information on how to become a naturopathic
doctor! I am so happy that young students are being exposed to the
naturopathic profession because had I known of this medical pathway
way back when I was starting out on my college career I would have
made different decisions for sure!
Campus Visit Day
Speaking of future naturopathic doctors, Campus Visit Day will
be held next weekend. As it stands now, the stats for visitors are
almost 50/50 for ND-interested students and DC-interested students.
This is a first for Campus Visit Day for sure! Usually, there is an
overwhelming amount of DC prospect students coming from far and
wide to check out the school for Campus Visit Day, but with the ND
program growing interest we are starting to have a greater presence
on campus! I will be at Campus Visit Day this weekend to answer
questions of prospective students and to help give tours of the
campus. Come and join if you can!

Have a spook-tacular week!!
