Didactic presents an understanding of the process of labor, birthing, and immediate postpartum and how this impacts on the mother and baby from a midwifery perspective. Specific focus centers on the midwifery management process, particularly for the normal, with differential diagnosis to determine when intervention/consultation is necessary. Birthing management will be viewed in a variety of settings and cultures. Practical skills for assessment and management will be taught. The course will provide mastery of the core competencies required by ACNM.
Clinical practice includes nurse-midwifery management of the care of the normal intrapartum woman/ newborn/ family and collaboration and/or referral for complex management. Experience on the postpartum ward and in newborn care is obtained in this clinical rotation when intrapartum patients are not available.
Clinical skills preparation is essential before a student enters clinical practicum. A variety of skills relevant to intrapartum, newborn, and postpartum care are taught and then practiced in simulation settings and peer practice.
This course is a continuation of Seminar I. Using the DNP Competencies in Comprehensive Care as the framework, students will analyze clinical decision-making and utilization of evidence for best clinical practices in the inpatient setting. Clinical appraisal and critique of challenging cases from the practice environment will facilitate the students’ application of the knowledge base and skills essential to the role of the nurse midwife.
André Malraux’s
Museum without Walls
(1947) aims to “destroy” art history through the production of an eternal present of art in continuous metamorphosis. My course will focus on the mimetic uses of Malraux’s Opus by very different artists in the 1950s and the 1960s, in order to show an important anti-historical shift not only in art, but in the thought and politics of this period. The universalist formalism of Malraux’s montage of photographs encourages a multitude of formal, philosophical and political appropriations of his model: books, displays, archives, films, artistic conferences may signify the entry into post-history and the legitimation of “ultimate” painting according to Ad Reinhardt in the United States, the analogical and utopian present of the Independent Group in England, and a racialist conception of art by the Danish Asger Jorn. The filmmaker Chris Marker was the only artist who didn’t adopt this anti-historical posture, but found in Malraux’s model a way to express the “tragic of memory,” a possible combination of the universal and the particular, of struggle for freedom and melancholy of defeat. In the last part of my courses, I will attempt to situate the case study of the “Imaginary Museum of Artists” in a more general anti- and post-historical turn in the 1950s, linking mostly art, anthropology and political philosophy.

At the end of the course sequence, students will be prepared to meet behavioral health needs in varied settings across the life span.
This course is designed to prepare students for evaluating and treating the running athlete. This course includes an overview of foot and ankle mechanics, lower quarter strength and flexibility examination, application of the Functional Movement ScreenTM, and use of Video Analysis to identify relevant pathomechanics observed during running. Students are introduced to the clinical setting by evaluating patients in the context of a simulated running clinic, prior to participating in the student-led, Columbia RunLabTM clinic. Here they engage in clinical reason discussions and advise runners on exercise programs and improvements to running form. Students participate in training sessions required for the clinic including HIPPA and Blood-borne Pathogens training.
