Student Health Insurance
Long Island University has partnered with Gallagher Student Health & Special Risk to develop a cost-effective Student Health Insurance Plan that provides our students and families with robust medical coverage at school, back home, and while traveling or studying abroad. The plan is fully compliant with Federal Health Care Reform and offers students and their dependents access to a network of doctors, hospitals, and pharmacies throughout the country. All international students, clinical students, residential students, LIU Global students and intercollegiate athletes are automatically enrolled in the Plan but can waive participation online at www.gallagherstudent.com/liu if they have comparable coverage under a family plan or other policy. Students who enter during the spring and summer terms can also participate in the plan with shorter coverage period, reduced rates, and specific enrollment/waiver deadlines. Beginning on July 1st, students can go to their MyLIU account and click on the “Student Health Insurance” link from the Student Center Home Page to enroll in the Plan, print ID cards, check claims, or waive coverage. Coverage begins on August 15, which represents the start of the plan year, and extends through August 14. Remember that if you have been automatically enrolled in the plan and wish to waive coverage, you must go online and receive confirmation by the waiver deadlines listed below. If you require additional assistance, please call the Office of Student Financial Services at 516-299-2553. Enrollment Waiver Periods Annual Plan: July 1 - September 30 Spring Plan: January 1 - February 15 Summer Plan: May 15 – July 15 Annual Rates • Mandatory and Compulsory/Hard Waiver Students - $2,369 • Spouse/Domestic Partner - $2,369 • Each Child - $2,369 NOTE: New students who enter during the spring or summer terms will participate in the Plan with prorated coverage periods and rates.

Items not available at LIU libraries can also be requested through interlibrary loan and brought to campus or delivered electronically. The B. Davis Schwartz Memorial Library at LIU Post houses a large and diverse print and non-print collection which is particularly strong in the areas of library and information science, psychology, education, literature, art, and business. The Reference Commons is comprised of the Reference Services Department, the Circulation/Reserve Department, and Interlibrary Loan. Located primarily on the library’s main floor, the area has more than 30 computers for student use; wireless access; a variety of seating options, including individual study carrels; a café; and copy and scanning services.

Located on the lower level, the Center’s collections of multimedia (DVDs, audio CDs, etc.) as well as K-12 curriculum resources reflect the diverse learning styles of today’s learners. The IMC’s comprehensive collection of curriculum resources for K-12 (teacher resource materials, children’s books, and textbooks) supports the programs of the College of Education, Information and Technology. In collaboration with faculty, the IMC provides workshops and demonstrations which help prepare students to be effective users of information and technology.

In addition, DI has a collection of art reference books, course related textbooks, scholarly books on topics in the fine arts, and a selection of books from the library of Professor Jacqueline Anne Frank. It is the home of the William Randolph Hearst Archive and provides patrons worldwide with provenance information on works of art that were once part of the Hearst Collection. Its photographic records are often requested for use in academic presentations and publications. The Hutchins Gallery on the lower level of the Library provides space for exhibits, lectures, and other programs.

HIS 601 Historiography An introduction to the variety of interpretive stances taken by historians in the past century and a half. Education in history at the master¿s level concentrates on how history is Interpreted, rather the facts of history themselves. All historians work with factual information, but historians vary widely in the questions they ask, in the kinds of evidence they attend to, and the ways in which they explain what happened. We will study a variety of approaches, including history influenced by Marx, the Annales school, structuralist and post- structuralist anthropologists, Habermas, Foucault, Hayden White, feminists, and Kuhn. Students will write a significant study of the historiography of some historical topic, demonstrating that they have developed a critical understanding of modes of historical interpretation. Credits: 3 Every Spring
HIS 705 Practicum in Public History or Public Policy Designed as one option for successful completion of the degree, this course provides opportunities for M.A. students to develop a significant project intended either to present an aspect of history to the public or to research the historical background for a current issue of public policy. Students will work independently with a faculty member to design and carry out a project tailored to their specific career objectives. Credits: 3 Every Fall and Spring
HIS 707 Thesis Seminar Required of matriculated master's students following Plan I.

BMS 824C Clinical Practicum III The Clinical Practicum Courses completed at North Shore University Hospital are designed to provide perfusion students with an intensive opportunity to develop, practice and master the skills required to perform safe extracorporeal circulation procedures. These clinical practice courses require directed hands-on use of equipment and techniques that constitute the cardiopulmonary bypass procedure. Under the direct supervision of a clinical instructor, the students are exposed to increasing levels of responsibility in the clinical conduct of perfusion. As the students¿ abilities permit, they assume expanding responsibilities with the ultimate goal of functioning independently as a practicing perfusionist. These clinical practice courses are taught in the operating room theater with special emphasis on developing technical skills in the extracorporeal procedure itself. Instruction will also include current adjunctive methods in autotransfusion, mycocardial preservation techniques, intra-aortic balloon support, and aseptic techniques. At course completion, the student will have: 1. Developed sufficient clinical competency about the rudiments of extracorporeal circuit, its components, design, assembly and operation of the equipment. 2. Under directed supervision, begun to successfully perform those technical manipulations that constitute the essential part of the extracorporeal circuit and other perfusion procedures 3. Been evaluated by the instructors supervising the clinical learning experiences. Students are evaluated by using an evaluation form titled "Perfusion Student Case Evaluation". Following the completion of Perfusion Clinical Practice courses, each student is required to perform clinical cases for clinical competency determination. In these Clinical Competency
