<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Good afternoon Julie,</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Thank you for the effort to create a database of gerontology programs. I shared the attached with members of the Age Directors Interest Group who are cc’d here. I received it from a colleague
 who has not responded to my request as to their source just yet. I am aware that information about programs is also available here
<a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.aghedirectory.org/__;!!PvXuogZ4sRB2p-tU!AcQLM0D5IJotb5YQ8s-AhHNMZalyGEDXIu52mgRPrhjk2pSYldyEl5PFvRC1Mb-vazqpO8v1p9SNok0$">

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">I think we all have the same goal, which is to highlight programs that focus on gerontology so students are aware of educational opportunities and can search for programs in a comprehensive,
 complete, and accurate database. I am not suggesting that the Champions of Aging do more work. But conducting a proper, comprehensive search of gerontology/aging programs to enrich your already existing database seems appropriate. In fact, I believe that the
 members of the GSA SRPP leadership group held just earlier this week discussed conducting a larger effort to contact the universities and colleges on their own list to update their own information with a comprehensive search based on recommendations by the
 directors of the relevant programs. This is very exciting. I can assure you that the USF School of Aging Studies would be happy to participate in this effort as needed.

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">I look forward to assisting in building on the current effort and again, thank you for your work to move us in the direction of a comprehensive database of programs facilitating education about
 gerontology—the study of the various aspects of aging.</span></p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Dear Ross and Joann – </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Greetings to you both. </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">As you are aware, our department was involved in the development of a gerontology database of programs in the US.  As noted in the article on the GSA website and on the UNO Gerontology website, the focus was on gerontology programs only. 
 I did not have our Champions of Aging or Research Assistant include Aging Studies program in the listing.  We tried to keep this separate as the information is of interest – particularly to programs, like ours, that still retain gerontology as its name. 
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">I understand people have learned about the database through a message sent out via the GSA Connect Gerontology Directors listserv.  Do either of you still have this message?  I would welcome the opportunity to see it so we can understand
 what has been communicated and work to address any misunderstanding.  </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Also – we may want to explore how to add Aging Studies to our listing when I can find the funding to support this additional work.  To our knowledge, there is no other comprehensive database available of this nature. We believe it is
 of benefit to us all.  </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">It is worth noting, this project was funded entirely in-house.  It took 100+ hours for the team to go through each state to identify programs doing various web searches. The team acknowledges there could be errors – but hopefully they
 are few and far between.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Thanks in advance for your help and for contributing updates. 
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Take good care – Julie. </p>
