Graduation パーマー大学の卒業式は一見の価値有りです。全米の大学の卒業式を見たわけではありませんが、パーマー大学の卒業式はなんとも言えない雰囲気の中で行われます。卒業生は、パーマー大学での苦しい勉強から開放されるのと同時に、これからは自分自身でやっていかなければならないというプレッシャーを感じている雰囲気が入り混じっており考えさせられる卒業式になっています。 式の流れとして、最初にC.T.の卒業生が証書をもらい“C.T.の誓い”をします。 その後、D.C.プログラムの卒業生は卒業証書をもらった後、“カイロプラクティックの誓い”をし、ドクターになったことを認めてもらい、最後に自分が学生クリニックで使っていた時の名刺を投げるという恒例儀式があり、無事にパーマーでの全過程の修了となります。 ここに卒業生全員が行う、“C.T.の誓い”と“カイロプラクティックの誓い”を載せておきます。
