While giving a tour a few weeks ago to a group of prospective students from Idaho, I was asked a great question: Since Regis University is more expensive when compared to an in-state tuition school I’m looking at, what makes it so great? Or in other words, as a future graduate from Regis, will l [...]

It is a little too quiet in my apartment right now. Since Ashley’s mom had a TKA (total knee arthroplasty) last month, she and Spencer boarded a train last Sunday for Utah to go and help out for a week and a half. (We thought Spencer might like the train, and he sure did. However, [...]

About a year ago, near the end of the 2nd semester, I had a conversation with a then-2nd year student who was just about to complete the semester that I’m in right now. I was telling him how busy school was, and how tough it was, and how it was hard to keep everything organized. [...]

This week our class has two practical exams: one in Neuro-management I and another in Musculoskeletal Management II. They basically consist of 15-30 minutes of high stress, fear, sweat, near black-outs, cold sweat anticipation, and performing Physical Therapy “services” to a faculty member who acts like a patient while another faculty member is breathing [...]

I’ve been asked on several occasions what a typical day is as a DPT student at Regis. I respond, “Usually, we start class between 8 and 10 AM (depending on the day); we’ll get a lunch break from noon ‘till 1, then classes/labs until 3 or 5 PM (again, depending on the day). Keep in [...]

This semester we’ve really dived into the “PT Management” courses. . . . which means lots and lots of labs. Some, of course, are more interesting than others. For example, this photo gives you an idea of one of the more exciting times of a neuro-management lab this past week. Here, a classmate was put [...]

Well, we’re back into the classroom, and that includes long hours of lectures, labs, article reading, and all the planning involved with when this assignment is due or when that quiz will be held. I’ll spare you the details, but for those interested, year 2 (which we’ve just started) involves A LOT more article reading [...]

I’m writing this entry just as finals week is approaching, today being the Friday before. It’s funny they call this “Reading Day,” a day of no school, a day I should lay out in the sun and read a chapter of a book that doesn’t talk about Physical Therapy, but, here I found myself at [...]
