Our growing scholarship and fellowship programs are examples of AGHE's outreach to students. A second new initiative is the creation of a task force to address issues and needs from the community colleges. Continuing activities include our emphasis on both intergenerational and international issues in gerontological and geriatric education. Collaboration across the generations and across cultures will be highlighted in the theme of AGHE's 2002 annual meeting in Pittsburgh. Finally, through the efforts of our Advancement and Past-Presidents Committees, we are continuing to explore new and diverse friends, donors, and sponsors of the Association itself and of activities at our annual meetings.
Participation is a key element in utilizing diversity in positive ways.
I invite you to get involved and participate actively on an AGHE committee or task force. Share your ideas with us, and help us continue to grow and contribute meaningfully to gerontological and geriatric education. The European Master of Gerontology - Dr. Martha Meyer, Dipl.soz.wiss.
