Current relationship with UF
There is a Cooperative Agreement with UADY in place at present Anthropology (Reciprocal Agreement) Architecture (May have moved to
Guadalajara) UF does not currently have a reciprocal
agreement with the College of Veterinary Medicine but rumors are that this is in the works.
Current relationship with UF cont.
Current Cooperative Agreement with UF would cover a Spring Break exchange.
If we wanted to develop a relationship that would allow doctoral and other students to come for longer periods of time, we would need a Reciprocal Agreement.
Lynn Frazier would be happy to come and work with us on the agreement.

Recommendations
Immediate Goals:
Initiate coordination efforts associated with Spring Break 2007 Project Develop goals for experience Share information with nursing students Develop criteria for selection of project participants Identify costs associated with project participation
Recommendations cont.• Decide what our participation would be regarding longer term exchanges with master’s and PhD students
• Negotiate a Reciprocal Agreement to facilitate long-term student and faculty exchanges
• Sponsor a Sigma Theta Tau chapter at UADY. There are a number of people who are members but they do not have their own chapter. They are very interested and from what they said they should be able to have enough qualified people to charter a chapter.
