This is a 2 credit, pass/fail Spring seminar in the School of Public Health that brings together graduate and professional students from a wide range of disciplines to unpack the complexities of public health decision-making. We explored the process of public health decision making through current topics including tobacco prevention, health care financing, genetics, privacy, and national security. Almost every week there was a guest speaker and we went to the capitol to meet with lawmakers and met with the Commissioner of Health at the Minnesota Department of Human Services. Ann Lindstrom
