Do you remember how you felt the moment you found out you had been accepted into PT school? Or after you finished your first practical? Those many times when no matter how many cups of coffee you had, you still found yourself falling asleep in class? The first time you palpated the spine and had no idea what you were doing (but still pretended you knew what you were feeling)? Or how about all times you spent laughing with your classmates making memories you will hold in your heart for a lifetime? In a blink of an eye, this chapter is coming to a close for the class of ‘22. However, new doors are opening and we can’t wait to watch you all change the world! The class of ‘22 deserves a special shout out for being so resilient during these unpredictable times. You did it! Be proud of yourself. If you carry on anything from PT school, hopefully it is the catchphrase “it depends”. LET’S GO JACKS!

And that’s a wrap! Here are some of our first year PBC DPT students after taking their last final of the semester! Way to go team 👏🏽 We know you were nervous, but from here on out, everything’s going okay. Have fun over winter break ☺️⭐️
