New York Chiropractic College (NYCC) is one of the oldest chiropractic colleges in the United States. The College was founded in New York City in 1919 as the Columbia Institute of Chiropractic by Frank Dean, who served for nearly 40 years as the institution's first president. It grew through mergers with Columbia College of Chiropractic and Atlantic States Chiropractic Institute during the 1950s. |
|||
On June 7, 2021, the college changed its name from New York Chiropractic College to Northeast College of Health Sciences, to better reflect its diversification of programs.<ref>{{cite news |title=New York Chiropractic College in Seneca Falls changes its name |url=https://auburnpub.com/news/local/new-york-chiropractic-college-in-seneca-falls-changes-its-name/article_6abf37d5-2428-5c0f-9cc4-5f2e99de3325.html |access-date=12 June 2021 |work=Auburn Citizen |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=NYCC changes name, will now be known as Northeast College of Health Sciences |url=https://fingerlakes1.com/2021/06/08/nycc-changes-name-will-now-be-known-as-northeast-college-of-health-sciences/ |access-date=12 June 2021 |work=Fingerlakes1.com |date=2021-06-08}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Going Northeast|url=https://www.nycc.edu/goingnortheast |website=Northeast College of Health Sciences |language=en}}</ref> |
|||
In 1959 Ernest Napolitano was named President. Under his leadership and through his skills as an educator and lecturer, NYCC achieved national prominence. In 1979 the College was granted an Absolute Charter by the New York State Board of Regents and received professional accreditation of its Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree program from the Council on Chiropractic Education. |
|||
In 1985, NYCC was awarded regional accreditation by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. In addition, during the early 1980s the College moved from New York City to Long Island, opening a 50-acre (200,000 m<sup>2</sup> ) campus in Old Brookville, and clinics in Greenvale and Levittown. |
|||
In 2024, the college established a new branch campus in [[Levittown, New York]], on Long Island, offering an additional cohort of its Doctor of Chiropractic program.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-07-02 |title=Chiropractic school bound for Levittown |url=https://www.newsday.com/business/northeast-college-of-health-sciences-levittown-bdrhj5u8 |access-date=2024-08-29 |website=Newsday |language=en}}</ref> That year, the college also began offering its first undergraduate programs -- AAS and certificate programs -- at its main Seneca Falls campus.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-08 |title=Northeast College adds 3 undergraduate programs for Fall 2024 |url=https://www.chiroeco.com/northeast-college-adds-3-undergraduate-programs-for-fall-2024/ |access-date=2024-08-29 |website=Chiropractic Economics |language=en-US}}</ref> |
|||
Upon his death in 1985, President Napolitano was succeeded by Neil Stern, who had been Acting President from 1985 to 1987. President Stern was then succeeded by Keith Asplin, who served from 1987 through 1989. Constrained in its efforts to expand on Long Island, the Board of Trustees approved the acquisition of the former Eisenhower College campus in Seneca Falls, NY, in early 1989. This was followed by the Board's appointment of Kenneth Padgett, whose motto was, "Tradition in Transition." |
|||
==Academics== |
|||
The 1990s were NYCC's greatest period of facility and technology upgrades. In 1991 the College opened the Seneca Falls campus, 300 miles (480 km) from the former location, in the Finger Lakes region of New York State The new campus was a 286-acre (1.16 km<sup>2</sup> ) site on which were existing academic, administrative, library, athletic center, and residence hall facilities. The hiring of many new faculty, and renovations to the facility transformed the site of a former liberal arts college into one of the profession's leading chiropractic educational institutions, in terms of program quality and the physical resources to support that quality. The year 1991 also saw the opening of a new chiropractic health center in Syracuse, NY, and the closing of the Greenvale Clinic. |
|||
In addition to a Doctor of Chiropractic program, the college offers graduate programs in clinical nutrition, diagnostic imaging, anatomy, and human anatomy & physiology instruction. Undergraduate programs include AAS degrees in diagnostic medical sonography and radiologic technology, as well as a certificate in massage therapy. <ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-08 |title=Northeast College adds 3 undergraduate programs for Fall 2024 |url=https://www.chiroeco.com/northeast-college-adds-3-undergraduate-programs-for-fall-2024/ |access-date=2024-08-29 |website=Chiropractic Economics |language=en-US}}</ref> |
|||
The college also runs community clinics in [[Seneca Falls, New York|Seneca Falls]], [[Depew, New York|Depew]], and [[Levittown, New York]]. The school is affiliated with the [[National Naval Medical Center]] in [[Bethesda, Maryland]], and Veterans Hospitals in [[Syracuse, New York|Syracuse]], [[Buffalo, New York|Buffalo]], [[Canandaigua, New York|Canandaigua]], and [[Bath, New York]], as well as [[Miami|Miami, Florida]].{{cn|date=June 2024}} |
|||
Expansion of NYCC's facilities has been ongoing since relocation to Seneca Falls. The Ernest G. Napolitano Postgraduate Center opened in 1992. This 5,000-square-foot (460 m<sup>2</sup> ) annex adjoins the Levittown Chiropractic Health Center, providing a home for the College's active postgraduate and continuing education programs. In 1994 NYCC's third chiropractic health center was opened near Buffalo, and a new 9,300-square-foot (860 m<sup>2</sup> ) building providing additional classroom and laboratory space was constructed on the Seneca Falls campus. Today, this building serves as a research and video teleconferencing center. |
|||
Another new building was completed on the Seneca Falls campus in 1998. This 38,000-square-foot (3,500 m<sup>2</sup> ) facility contains lecture halls equipped with advanced instructional technology, as well as faculty offices, and faculty and student lounges. In 1999, the College dedicated the 17,200-square-foot (1,600 m<sup>2</sup> ) Depew Chiropractic Health Center, another new building in the Buffalo area. |
|||
In 2000 Frank Nicchi, a 1978 alumnus and longtime faculty member, was appointed President of the College, succeeding Padgett. |
|||
In 2002, the College spearheaded a strategic planning process overseen by the newly formed Division of Institutional Quality and Assessment. That same year the Post-Graduate Department began offering courses online. |
|||
In 2003 the Seneca Falls Health Center, a 19,400-square-foot (1,800 m<sup>2</sup> ) multidisciplinary, integrated healthcare facility, was opened to the public. At the same time, the former health center on the Seneca Falls campus was designated as the Campus Health Center to serve as an internship site where student interns meet the healthcare needs of the campus community (students, staff, and faculty), and of low-income community members. The Syracuse Chiropractic Health Center was closed in 2003. |
|||
The Absolute Charter from the Board of Regents, which had been amended in 1989 to permit NYCC's move from Long Island to Seneca Falls, was amended again in 2002 to allow the College to offer new degrees in addition to the DC degree: the Bachelor of Professional Studies (BPS) and Master of Science (MS) degrees. The two new master's degree programs – Acupuncture (MSA) and Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine (MSAOM) – were approved by the New York State Education Department and, together with the BPS degree, were offered for the first time in September 2003. A Master of Science in Diagnostic Imaging degree was added in October 2003, a Master of Science in Applied Clinical Nutrition was approved for enrollment in the Fall of 2006, and a Master of Science in Clinical Anatomy was approved for enrollment in the Fall of 2007, an Advanced Certificate in Whole Food Nutrition in 2009, and in 2010, the Master of Science in Human Anatomy and Physiology Instruction was approved. |
|||
In 2003 the college established a program in collaboration with A.T. Still University School of Health Sciences enabling NYCC alumni and friends to earn master's degrees entirely online, in Public Health (MPH), Healthcare Administration (MHA) or Geriatrics (GHM). That same year, NYCC began offering chiropractic services at Rochester's Monroe Community Hospital. |
|||
Consistent with its civic responsibilities, NYCC volunteered to host the Special Olympics of New York fall games in 2003, and did so again in 2004, 2009 and 2010. |
|||
The College established valuable clinical relationships in 2004 with the State University of New York (SUNY) at Buffalo, and in 2005 with Veterans Administration Medical Centers (VAMC) in Rochester and Buffalo. Also in 2005, the College's MSA and MSAOM programs received notice of approval as a candidate for accreditation by the Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. |
|||
The year 2005 also saw NYCC, together with the University of Rochester, receive a five-year $2 million grant to continue developing educational programs for health professionals to improve the care provided to older adults. |
|||
The main administration building on campus was named after former college president Kenneth W. Padgett in 2006. The College established clinical relationships with the VAMCs in Canandaigua, NY and in Bath, NY, in 2006 and 2007, respectively. Additional clinical relationships were established in 2007 with SUNY Stony Brook, SUNY Farmingdale, and St. John Fisher University. |
|||
The United States Department of Health and Human Services awarded NYCC a $1,124,244 grant in 2007. That same year, NYCC received an Empire State Advantage "Excellence at Work" Gold Award, and celebrated its largest fall class enrollment in 15 years. In addition, the College started an on campus instructional Chinese medicinal herb garden. |
|||
In 2009 NYCC President Frank J. Nicchi assumed the presidency of the Association of Chiropractic Colleges in 2009, and the College launched its new Academy for Professional Success, which was nominated for a Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award. The year 2009 also brought NYCC recognition by G.I. Jobs as a "Military Friendly School," and by The Chronicle of Higher Education as a "Great College to Work For," an award it earned again in 2010 in addition to appearing on the Chronicle of Higher Education's Honor Roll. |
|||
Also in 2009, NYCC's acupuncture and Oriental Medicine program became The Finger Lakes School of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (FLSAOM) of NYCC, and held its first annual Traditional Chinese Medicine Symposium at Homecoming Weekend. |
|||
In 2010 NYCC launched the newly approved (by New York State) online Master of Science in Applied Clinical Nutrition, and opened the Rochester Outpatient Health Center in Henrietta, NY, offering chiropractic care, and acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Additional clinical relationships were established with Bryant & Stratton College, Roberts Wesleyan University, Finger Lakes Community and Migrant Health and Georgetown University. |

Northeast College of Health Sciences is a private alternative health college college in Seneca Falls, New York. It was previously named Columbia Institute of Chiropractic and New York Chiropractic College, before being renamed in 2021. It is one of 20 accredited chiropractic programs in the United States.[citation needed][2]
History
[edit]The school was founded in New York City as Columbia Institute of Chiropractic by chiropractor Frank Dean in 1919.[3] In 1977, the New York State Board of Regents recognized the college under the name New York Chiropractic College before moving from Manhattan to Long Island three years later.[3] In 1989, unable to expand in Long Island, Northeast purchased the former Eisenhower College campus in Seneca Falls, New York. After two years of renovations, the college moved to the 286-acre Seneca Falls campus in 1991.[4]
Northeast formerly had a partnership with the addiction treatment program, Bridge Back to Life,[5] founded by neurologist and addiction medicine specialist, Russell Surasky.[6]
On June 7, 2021, the college changed its name from New York Chiropractic College to Northeast College of Health Sciences, to better reflect its diversification of programs.[7][8][9]
In 2024, the college established a new branch campus in Levittown, New York, on Long Island, offering an additional cohort of its Doctor of Chiropractic program.[10] That year, the college also began offering its first undergraduate programs -- AAS and certificate programs -- at its main Seneca Falls campus.[11]
Academics
[edit]In addition to a Doctor of Chiropractic program, the college offers graduate programs in clinical nutrition, diagnostic imaging, anatomy, and human anatomy & physiology instruction. Undergraduate programs include AAS degrees in diagnostic medical sonography and radiologic technology, as well as a certificate in massage therapy. [12]
The college also runs community clinics in Seneca Falls, Depew, and Levittown, New York. The school is affiliated with the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, and Veterans Hospitals in Syracuse, Buffalo, Canandaigua, and Bath, New York, as well as Miami, Florida.[citation needed]
