The Palmer Florida principle of forging ahead with an open mind is embedded in the new building itself: 10,000 square feet have been reserved for future growth, whatever shape it might take.
Founded 124 years ago by D.D. Palmer, Palmer College of Chiropractic is the oldest and most-respected chiropractic college in the world.
As the 125th anniversary approaches, Palmer College will dedicate new multi-million-dollar spaces this Thursday, September 16, 2021, at 11:45 a.m. on its main campus in Davenport.
When all is said and done, more than $35 million in projects will be completed, including the R. Richard Bittner Athletic & Recreation Center, Trevor V. Ireland Student Clinic, and the Bruce & Bethel Hagen Student Union in the Quad Cities.
In 2022, Palmer Florida will celebrate 20 years in Port Orange, Florida, as well as a fourth academic building that will help the college meet the demands of rising student enrollment. More than 800 students are currently enrolled at Palmer Florida.
