I don't remember this for sure, but wasn't it that they started out being domiciled somewhere on the East Coast before relocating to Hawai'i and they just kept the name?

It's licensed in IL, NM, NV, and OH (but it appears only grandfathered to historical licensees in OH). It also seems to have a foothold in Scandinavia. Although Southwest University of Naprapathic Medicine is accredited by the DEAC, its DN degree is a hybrid program with classes on-campus most Saturdays for the first two years, then a hands-on internship in the student clinic in year three.

No thanks, I'd rather just go to a bona fide orthopedist.

Funny enough, I was there on "campus" 2 years ago back in August in Virginia Beach to explore A.R.E. and the rest of the area. It's an interesting facility that hosts tours and provides insights into the realm of holistic healing and clairvoyants. They also have a room for meditation in the upstairs portion of the A.R.E. building with overlook out towards the beach and their own personal library. Atlantic University is adjacent to the A.R.E. building and practices the teachings that are a core part of A.R.E. I believe its located inside the Cayce Hospital where they provide massages as well. A lot of it is based off of dreams, psychology, and the afterlife. It derives from Edgar Cayce's history of healing people by dreaming and providing a treatment for them based off of those dreams. I believe a part of why it is called Atlantic University stems from the belief of Edgar Cayce, his wife Gertrude, and assoicates in the belief of finding Atlantis and other lost continents via those dreams (they were some pretty weird people, but interesting nonetheless). Plus, it's situated right there on the edge of the Atlantic.

Here's a link to dive deeper into Edgar Cayce: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_Cayce

One of our members have a SDI Associates!  And for Viridis, I actually recommended that to Supermind a few months after he got his MS Psych from Walden.  It's a unique degree in Ecological Psychology, even though they're NA, I thought they had a good course list in the subject matter.

I was also about to say, I remember someone did the associates in firearms from SDI.
