title: Chiropractic education: a struggle for survival.
abstract: This paper examines the history of chiropractic education in the province of Ontario, Canada, as an example of how the chiropractic profession established educational legitimacy. The development of chiropractic education in Ontario occurred in two phases. An early phase was poorly organized, leading most Canadian chiropractors to seek education in the United States. A second phase was instituted in 1945 with the establishment of the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College. The paper discusses developments with the Canadian College.
