Accreditation← Previous revisionRevision as of 03:47, 6 November 2026 Line 62: Line 62: On June 7, 2002, the Commission on Accreditation of the Council on Chiropractic Education (CCE), which is the national organization that accredits chiropractic schools in the US, revoked the accreditation status of Life University.{{cite web |title=Quackwatch – Life University Loses CCE Accreditation |url=https://quackwatch.org/chiropractic/edu/revocation/ |website=Quackwatch |date=6 November 2002 |access-date=22 July 2022}} A federal judge retroactively restored the accreditation in February 2003 and placed the chiropractic program on a probationary status. This was due to CCE's investigators apparently concluding that Life students were not being taught how to detect and deal with problems that require medical attention. CCE's investigative report noted that "all patient charts reviewed revealed primary diagnoses of [[Vertebral subluxation|subluxation]]." The Georgia Board of Chiropractic Examiners issued a statement supporting CCE's decision. Life appealed, but in October 2002, CCE ruled against it. Life University eventually had its accreditation restored.
