MARIETTA - The country's largest chiropractic college hopes to regain its accreditation Sunday in a hearing before a panel appointed by the board governing the trade. <br>
<br>
A Life University delegation will try to convince the Council on Chiropractic Education that the Marietta school deserves another chance. <br>
<br>
The council took away the accreditation in June after reports showed graduates did poorly on licensing exams. <br>
<br>
Five current and former students are now claiming in a lawsuit that the school and its former president were negligent in losing accreditation. <br>
<br>
Graduates of an unaccredited program cannot sit for national board exams that are required for a license in any state. <br>
<br>
The school has already lost about half its students. It may lose the rest if the panel does not restore the accreditation.
