KEYNOTE SPEAKER

William E. Morgan

Chiropractor to Congress, Supreme Court, and the White House, Parker University’s Seventh President, Active Texas Chiropractic Association Member, and proud Texan

Dr. Morgan has a long history of serving in military healthcare. At age 17, he joined the Navy and served with a Marine Recon company as a special operations technician hospital corpsman. During that time, he qualified in parachuting, military diving, submarine insertion, jungle warfare, combat swimming, explosives, mountaineering, winter warfare and Arctic survival. Additionally, he attended anti-terrorist training at the FBI Academy. After leaving active military service and transferring to the Navy Reserves, Dr. Morgan began his educational journey to become a Doctor of Chiropractic. While at Palmer College of Chiropractic-West, he transferred to a Naval Special Warfare platoon as the unit’s primary hospital corpsman.

Parker University inaugurated William E. Morgan as their seventh President in 2016. Under his leadership, the University has grown exponentially in enrollment and brand recognition and, in 2022, it secured full reaffirmation accreditation with no concerns by the Council on Chiropractic Education (CCE) and Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC). Upon arriving in Texas, he became an active member and supporter of the Texas Chiropractic Association (TCA). Almost immediately, he organized a leadership summit to establish a legislative agenda strategy for chiropractors in Texas. Texas Chiropractors had not won a significant legislative victory in two decades, but in 2017 four bills advantageous to the chiropractic profession passed. Additionally, Morgan has assisted in fundraising, membership recruitment, and awareness for the TCA. As lifetime member of the American Chiropractic Association (ACA), he has also held several leadership positions in the organization and continues to serve on the Advisory Board and Ethics Committee. He is also a board member of the Association of Chiropractic Colleges.
