A Message from the President

At Logan, our students are taught the principles of patient-centered health care. Our students, faculty and clinicians are challenged to improve patients’ health while making the health care system better for all patients.

When we assume this leadership role, the patient will benefit. As a leader in integrated health care, we ensure patients receive evidence-informed, whole-person care. We restore function, alleviate pain, promote wellness and provide patients with improved quality of life. That’s the Logan difference.

We invite you to explore our academic programs, which range from our undergraduate offerings to our flagship Doctor of Chiropractic degree program, Doctorate of Health Professions Education, our innovative Master of Science degree programs and our Bachelor’s degree programs.

Discover life at Logan beyond the classroom. Our hands-on clinical instruction and collaborative training model places our students in real-world settings—trained to treat patients, work with health care partners and not-for-profit service organizations and lead an integrated health care system. Off campus, you’ll enjoy Chesterfield’s vibrant arts and parks and you’ll be minutes from downtown St. Louis attractions.

I invite you to visit campus today—I am confident you will see the Logan difference.

Best wishes,

Clay McDonald, DC, MBA, JD

Historical Timeline

On September 1, 1935, Logan College of Chiropractic Inc. is founded with an initial enrollment of seven students. Dr. H.B. Logan (pictured above) serves as the College’s first president until 1944. The College’s original location was at 4490 Lindell Boulevard in St. Louis’ Central West End.

By October 1936, Logan had outgrown the Lindell campus and moves to a 17-acre estate on November 6 at 7701 Florissant Road in Normandy, Mo.

In anticipation of future growth, Logan’s administration and Board of Trustees began to evaluate the adequacy of the College campus and the decision was made to search for a new campus site. In 1972, Logan acquired the buildings and grounds of the former Maryknoll Junior Seminary. The 112-acre campus in Chesterfield, Mo., was purchased for $1.8 million.
