New Narrative Medicine degree at Columbia
Just spreading the word about the new Masters of Science in Narrative Medicine that's starting this coming fall at Columbia University - sounds like a wonderful place to explore women and health issues, among others.
Here's the official blurb:
"Narrative medicine is an emerging clinical discipline that fortifies the practice of doctors, nurses, social workers, therapists, and other caregivers with the knowledge of how to interpret and respond to their patients' stories. The program of study in this pioneering masters program is profoundly interdisciplinary, incorporating the humanities and social sciences into a seminar-based learning experience that includes supervised practice in clinical settings. More information can be found at www.ce.columbia.edu/narrativemedicine."
You can contact Marsha Hurst, Ph.D. at 917-834-0427 for more information.

Scholarship opportunity for girls
A lovely intern at the Emma Willard School sought me out to ask me if I would spread the word about their Davis Scholarship. Here's her quick blurb - please help spread the word about this opportunity for girls!
"The Davis Scholarship really is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, providing full tuition, room & board, and even travel expense coverage for girls (10th grade and up) to attend Emma Willard, the oldest (and, in my admittedly biased opinion, best) girls' school in the country. As if this weren't enough, the Davis scholarship program even provides its recipients with a certain amount of money towards college tuition (amazing!). Although the Davis United World College Scholar Program (the parent of our program) was started with the purpose of giving talented international students the chance to study in the U.S., the Davis program at Emma provides the same opportunities for domestic students, drawing a broad spectrum of applicants. It's also the first time that Emma Willard has been able to offer international girls financial aid of any kind. Needless to say, we're all really excited about this and we hope that by reaching out to women like yourself, women with active interests in the needs and well-being of girls today, we can get the word out to even more amazing girls."
