Rapoport Center Colloquium: Law and the Production of Inequality

"Trade, Distribution and Development under Supply Chain Capitalism"

Dan Danielsen, Professor of Law and Faculty Director, Program on the Corporation, Law and Global Society, Northeastern University

Respondent: Sharmila Rudrappa, Professor of Sociology & Director of the Center for Asian American Studies, University of Texas at Austin

Our public debates are increasingly centered on the question of socio-economic inequality – its increase, its economic and political consequences, its importance to the present and its likely future. Inequality may well be at the root of many of the human rights violations in the world today. Our Fall 2018 speaker series will explore the role of law (including, perhaps, human rights law) in the production of inequality, and the role of law (including, of course, human rights law) in responding to inequality. The Colloquium presents an interdisciplinary group of scholars who focus their investigations on the ways in which various legal regimes create, reinforce, and/or ameliorate patterns of structural inequality, locally and globally.

UHS administers the quadrivalent influenza vaccine. It contains no preservatives (thimerosol). UHS does not administer the high-dose flu vaccine for people over age 65.

Getting a flu shot is the best way to prevent the flu. The U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that everyone gets a flu shot every year, unless medical reasons prevent it.

The flu shot won't give you the flu. UHS administers the inactivated virus flu vaccine. Viruses in this vaccine have been killed, so you can't get the flu from the shot

You must bring the following to a clinic to get a flu shot: 1. Your UT ID card or, if you are a retiree, proof that you’ve retired from UT. 2. Your health insurance card or complete insurance information, if you are insured. If on a parent’s/guardian’s insurance policy, you’ll need the policy holder’s birthdate. Insurance isn’t required for students to get the flu shot. 3. RETIREES ONLY: a driver’s license or other documentation showing your birthdate.
