Former
U.S. President and recent Nobel Peace Prize winner Jimmy Carter stepped
into his role as University Distinguished Professor Nov. 13 when he spoke
to a class in the Rollins School of Public Health. Some 60 students taking
the course "Anthropological Perspectives and International Health"
heard firsthand how the Carter Center has formed a network of public health
professionals, wealthy American corporations and leaders around the world
to nearly eradicate the devastating Guinea worm disease
and aggressively fight to control
trachoma and river blindness in Africa and Asia. Photo by Jon Rou. |
