Looking Back At SECOM

Looking Backat SECOM is the culmination of a long series of human interest columns with that title by Dr. Melnick, published in the schools magazine COM Outlook. In addition, Dr. Melnick has added some personal insights about why and how this osteopathic medical school came about. And he presents some views of the earliest days of its founding.

A major portion of this work is the re-publishing of those original columns, and he has added a brief overview of the eventual transition into todays Nova Southeastern University College of Osteopathic Medicine.

Dr. Melnick includes recognition of the many osteopathic physicians and friends of the school who were part of the founding effort.
