Toni Tripp-Reimer Honored

The University of Iowa honored several outstanding students, faculty and an alumnus in April of 2005 at the 88th anniversary Finkbine Dinner for Representative Student Leaders, one of the University's most prestigious award ceremonies.  Hancher-Finkbine medallions awarded at the dinner recognize outstanding leadership, learning and loyalty, and are named after William O. Finkbine, a Des Moines businessman and 1880 UI law graduate, and Virgil M. Hancher, who served as president of the UI from 1940 to 1964.

This year's Hancher-Finkbine medallion for faculty was awarded to Toni Tripp-Reimer, professor of nursing.  She received a B.S. in nursing from University of Maryland, an M.S. in nursing, an M.A. in anthropology and a Ph.D. in anthropology from Ohio State University. She has written numerous manuscripts and frequently presents on topics related to minority health, cultural diversity, aging studies, research methodology, grants and nursing theory.  Dr. Tripp-Reimer served as the principal investigator for the Caring for Native American Elders pilot study funded by the Center, and currently serves as a co-investigator for the Caring for Native American Elders: Prairie Addition project.

 

CRCHC receives additional funding from new SC Ministry Foundation Grant. This new grant is for two years and will allow us to continue our track, fund new pilot projects, and grow the Center with new collaborative efforts.

 

Spirituality and Suicide Project evolves to second phase. A Center Collaborative Effort between the CRCHC and Ken Mottram, D. Min will allow us to reach out and conduct additional research. This collaboration is thanks to a Gilhousen Family Foundation grant.
