Greetings all.


I am confident someone out there in HEDIR land can assist in my search.
I'm looking for colleges/universities that offer a master's degree
specifically in "SCHOOL" health education. I have already looked at
several of the more popular health related links that identify
colleges/universities that offer degrees in health, but I don't really
have the time (nor desire) to look at every univeristiy web page to see
if they offer a master's degree specifically in school health. Therefore
I put the question to my fellow hedir'ers..........Please email me if
you know of any colleges/universities that offer a master's degree
specifically in "SCHOOL" health education.


As always thanks in advance for your help with my search.
Wm Hey

In case the removal of condom posters and programs that work from the CDC
website does not scare you, this came from the Washington Post a few days
ago:


Bush Policies Hurt AIDS Prevention, Groups Say
Administration Accused of Disinformation on Condom Use, Harassment Audits of
Education Programs
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A24722-2002Sep30.html


Lead paragraph....


Proponents of comprehensive sex education accused the Bush administration
yesterday of waging a widespread campaign of disinformation and intimidation
that is hampering AIDS prevention work across the country.
