Dear Faculty Reviewer,

CRS Staff is in the process of reviewing our faculty resources on Global issues that are currently posted on CRScollege.org.  We have selected some resources related to HIV and AIDS and we would like to ask you, an academic, to give them a cursory review. Please let us know whether or not you and your students would consider them helpful.

Also, if you have additional suggestions for this site, please let us know.  CRS will review your suggestions for potential posting on our site.

Thank you for your time.
