Hearing may determine future of Life University

MARIETTA - The country&#39;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.
