Featured Quote:

"The Physical Therapy Leadership Institution embodies the vision and work of those leaders who have come before us and upon whose shoulders we stand. Dr. Geneva Johnson's courage and deep commitment to the non-negotiable value for professional education at the graduate level was essential to transformative change in physical therapist education. We must continue with that kind of vision and courage in physical therapist education. In 1985, Geanie said this in her McMillan, " Changes in education are the key to full professional status. Therefore, I expect that preparation for practice must include opportunities for student develop skill in the political process at all levels of government and in organizations; skill in negotiation, communication, and use of the computer; and knowledge in economics, accounting, behavioral sciences, the humanities, mathematics, the biological and physical sciences, pharmacology, medical sciences, and the science and art of physical therapy. " We have more work to do!!!"
