The first full semester of classes is finished and it has been a great semester! We have 40 students across all levels of our program and we all showed a tremendous amount of growth.
In addition to our regular faculty, being located in a town like St. Louis gives us access to alot of great resources.
Recently, our professional students took a field trip to Wrymark/Resource Labs for a demo on orthotics and prosthetics. Orthotists and certified athletic trainer Dale Watson showed them all aspects of orthotic design, production and fitting. It made for a great day!
Making an impression of a foot. What a plantar-flexed first ray!
