<div>This is Pam Saunders from Georgetown University. I direct the MS in Aging & Health which is a gerontology program. I noticed our program was not on the list sent around. I’m curious what the methodology was for creating the list.</div>

<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.

Gerontology can get lost in the mix – so keeping it separate has value. At the same time – providing students with information about other programs is also useful to ensure they can access the programs most closely aligned with their interests. We will look
into this further on our end.</p>

I believe Ross sent out the note so he can forward it. At the Center Directors meeting, someone asked if programs other than “gerontology” could/should be included. I mentioned that APA’s Division 20 (Adult Development and Aging) maintains a list of graduate
programs related to aging: <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https*3A*2F*2Furldefense.com*2Fv3*2F__https*3A*2Fwww.apadivisions.org*2Fdivision-20*2Fpublications*2Fgraduate-studies__*3B!!PvXuogZ4sRB2p-tU!B1Aa2S69ST9ZXnRLfmV5CuC_2HZTSvR5dZkoqTvfb39pUN3sMa3IMDVziDFS6ZcsnWj-SvC2Z3Mymkyz1jx8NQ*24&data=05*7C01*7Crandel*40usf.edu*7C1615d82dcc674d52156208da343cb5fc*7C741bf7dee2e546df8d6782607df9deaa*7C0*7C0*7C637879732629642588*7CUnknown*7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0*3D*7C3000*7C*7C*7C&sdata=Xu0BvYLPSrSc*2B5jYSKUiumJgcJnBdmpAbZvabzNlRes*3D&reserved=0__;JSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSU!!PhOWcWs!2Xpv-GKTbHS8yUT1kDe-gMkdkfm90EnlmbV6ynXtItxdb2K6BagBm5Ikb3nUlV7Jl9SkxDfMdXa223JiC1B4XQ$" target="_blank">

I can see arguments on both sides - keeping the focus just on gerontology (as this is a GSA and AGHE list) versus extending it so that students/others are aware of the range of educational/training options. However, keeping track of gero programs may be a more
manageable path, but you could link to the D20 resources.

Dear Ross and Joann – </p>

</p>
<p style="margin:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
Greetings to you both. </p>

</p>
<p style="margin:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
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 style="margin:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
</p>
<p style="margin:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
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 style="margin:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
</p>
<p style="margin:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
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 style="margin:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
</p>
<p style="margin:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
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>
