The Commission is a specialized accrediting body recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. Within these stones and bricks, healing is to be administered, and no less important, human relationships developed between teachers and students and between students and patients.

We must never forget that the word patient comes from the Latin root which means to suffer. Clinical material does not suffer.
Human beings do.
