Vision, Mission, and Guiding Principles for SCUHS

President’s Message
We appreciate your interest and consider it a privilege to
participate in fulfilling your educational goals. As President, I have
the privilege of serving the university and leading the academic
mission of one of the richest learning environments of alternative
and integrative healthcare on any campus in the nation. It is a
responsibility that I accept with great pride and humility.
I am proud to say that SCU offers outstanding graduate education
in the healing arts through the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic,
College of Eastern Medicine, and the College of Science and
Integrative Health. The academic programs are backed by excellent
and dedicated faculty, an outstanding learning resource network,
and a strong academic support system. In addition to the Doctor of
Chiropractic, Master of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, First
Professional Doctorate of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, and
Master of Science: Physician Assistant programs, our postgraduate
residency programs in chiropractic sports medicine, primary spine
practitioner, and diagnostic imaging are second to none.
Since 1911, we have been dedicated to the highest levels of patient care and have gained a reputation for
excellence in science-based education. We provide students with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to meet
the many challenges of the changing healthcare environment. We welcome you to this historically rich
community of scholars and wish you the best in achieving your educational and professional goals.
Again, welcome! I encourage you to learn more about how SCU can contribute to your success as a healthcare
practitioner.
Sincerely,
John Scaringe, DC, EdD
