    Comments: The Payson Center is an essential part of the liberal arts curriculum at Tulane. As an undergrad major in INDV and a senior in the school of liberal arts, I can attest to the great liberal arts education I have received from Payson, which would only have been worse had it not been for the Ph.D. students who played an integral part in my education.

    Name: Jillian Landeck on Mar 7, 2007
    Comments: Payson Center has a strong reputation for its commitment to all fields of international development. By merging with the School of Public Health's program, the program loses a sense of well-roundedness and removes itself from participation in a diverse range of important areas. Moreover, this move limits the impact that the Payson Center will have in the future of academia, in the graduate as well as undergraduate community. It is imperative that the University reconsider its decision to eliminate this important program. Thank you, Jillian Landeck, B.A. International Development

    Comments: While I gratefully acknowledge that I have been in the program (Phd/abd) for tooo long now, I have seen the academic umbrella governing my program shift from Public Health to Graduate School to Payson to Public Health and cannot claim that it has made any difference with the kind of oversight I have been provided. But, I wholehartedly support Payson Center as the logical seat for my program in Information Technology for Sustainable Development (as I have come to understand and try to explain it).

    Comments: The paradox in halting the PhD program is that it has become evident, particularly in this post-Katrina environment, that there is a need for this PhD program in international development. Failure to promptly reinstate the program seriously calls into question the quality and relevance of the education that Tulane has to offer.

    Comments: To whom it may concern, The Payson Center Ph.D. program is an extremely important part of the Center and vital asset of the Tulane community. It contributes to the Center's ability to connect to the the international community, ability to draw world-renowned experts to New Orleans at a time of great need, and attracts high caliber students, many of whom are very engaged in the community. As Tulane, continues to focus on its new vision of a civicly engaged university, it is vital that the administration reinstates the International Development Ph.D. program. Thank you.

    Comments: It is hard to place blame on the people who make the decisions for cuts in the post-katrina Tulane campus, these individuals have done what is necessary for this institution's survival and continual strive towards excellence. However, to cut a program that has generated such national respect and recognition is something that cannot be accepted. Although it seems as though this PhD program has not be discarded as the engineering department, it will be changed so that it will lose its national recogition as one of the first and best institutions founded to help with global international development. The PhD program under the Health Sciences is no doubt at the top in the United States, however, this program only focuses on one aspect of international development. In a world that is constantly becoming more globalized, there will be a great demand in the future for experts to solve institutional problems that many government's face in third world countries. Although International health development is key to these institutional reforms, it will not be sufficient. Thus, in order to help keep Tulane as one of the best Universities in the United States, it is necessary to keep programs that may be small, but that gain much greater national attention and that help Tulane be as unique as it already is.
