In this news- letter you will see some familiar faces continuing to give their time and energy on your Board as well as several new Board members that bring their innovative vision and ener- gy to educate the public, build community and, most importantly, protect our right to practice in Colorado. Much has been happening behind the scenes for the past year. We have a new website. With the new look, we have added a database that pro- vides members the ability to build a profile for marketing purposes. We are transi- tioning into a more paperless form of communication and renewing of membership. Your patience and persistence during the process is appreciated. The weekend before Thanksgiving the Board met for a day retreat to define our mission for the following year. Planning for next years’ conference is already underway. We think you’re going to like it! A Sunset review committee is being formed. This committee will be instrumental in the continuation and protection of our scope of practice. Our new student representative is continuing to motivate and involve the students to become active in the AAC. They are the voice and progress of our profession tomorrow. The Public Relations committee continues to expand its efforts to educate the general public that simultane- ously provides marketing opportunities for members. The legislative committee keeps an eye not only our scope of practice but on other healthcare professions that have an interest in incorporating and expanding the ability to do acupuncture into their scopes of practice. Overwhelmingly, year after year, we have had What your Association needs to be sustainable: various members step up, volunteer their time, Membership increase.

    Russian Traditional Medicine The Effect of Russian Traditional Medicine on the Health Care of Russian Immigrants to America By Roy Long AN HONORS THESIS for the UNIVERSITY HONORS COLLEGE Submitted to the University Honors College at Texas Tech University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree designation of HIGHEST HONORS MAY 2011 Approved by: _____________________________________ ____________ DR. ANTHONY QUALIN Date Department of Classical and Modern Languages and Literatures _____________________________________ ____________ DR. MARJEAN D. PURINTON Date Associate Dean, University Honors College The author approves the photocopying of this document for educational purposes. i Russian Traditional Medicine ABSTRACT Russian immigrants to the United States have a higher incidence of many chronic and debilitating illnesses. A number of social scientists have argued that the causes of ill health are a result of multiple factors including language proficiency, country of origin and time elapsed since immigration. In this thesis, Russian Traditional Medicine, a system of beliefs held by many from Slavic-language speaking countries, is examined as a potential contributor to ill health in a Russian-speaking community in Glendale, Colorado. Interviews with physicians, pharmacists, naturopathic doctors, Russian pharmacy employees and grocery store owners were conducted to determine their perceptions of Russian health trends in the area. It was determined that Russian Traditional Medicine is manifested among members of the community and that these trends have an effect on the willingness of Russian speaking immigrants to participate in the health care system of the United States of America. Russian Traditional Medicine often was linked with a distrust of Western medicine and sometimes, a distrust of physicians in general.
