Even before I became dean in September 2005, I thought African health should be a major priority for the Bloomberg School. In February of this year, I had the opportunity to see the School's projects there firsthand. In a whirlwind trip, Health Advisory Board member Tom DeRosa, development director Sally O'Brien and I visited Cameroon, Uganda, Zambia and South Africa. In the United States, we often have a sense that Africa's barriers to health are overwhelming, but I sensed great hope in the Africans I met and witnessed their accomplishments. Our faculty and their African partners are doing amazing, lifesaving work.—Michael J. Klag
