Dear
Mr.
Pantuso:
As
Dean
(interim)
of
the
School
of
Rural
Public
Health,
Texas
A&M
University
System
Health
Science
Center,
I
am
pleased
to
be
able
to
write
this
letter
in
support
of
the
goals
of
the
Calabria
Foundation.
Increasing
access
to
medical
care
through
strategies
such
as
the
mobile
medical
units
you
propose
represents
the
kind
of
innovation
that
is
required
for
us
to
address
our
“critically
ill”
health
care
system.
Please
consider
the
faculty,
students
and
staff
at
SRPH
as
willing
partners
in
any
discussions
you
might
want
to
have
about
how
best
to
plan,
implement
and
evaluate
initiatives
undertaken
by
the
Foundation.
I
look
forward
with
great
enthusiasm
to
our
developing
collaboration.
Sincerely,
James N. Burdine, Dr.P.H.
Interim Dean, School of Rural Public Health
