Pharmacy student receives service excellence award by Deborah R. Holly College of Pharmacy Teresa D. Stanley, a P-2 student in the College of Pharmacy, was selected to receive the United States Public Health Service Excellence in Public Health Pharmacy Practice Award for 2005. LCDR Michael Shiber, on behalf of the Assistant Surgeon General RADM Richard S. Walling, presented the award April 27.   Recipients of this award are selected from nominations submitted by colleges of pharmacy across the country. Ron Nickel, Ph.D., nominated Stanley based on her work with the interdisciplinary public health interest group at MUSC as well as her efforts in initiating a ‘non-soda’ day for MUSC this academic year.   “As a public health person myself, I am very proud of this recognition for Ms. Stanley,” said MUSC President Ray Greenberg, M.D., Ph.D. “This is a great honor and not only reflects well on her, but on the whole university.”   The award recognizes students who demonstrated a commitment to public health and public health practice. It consists of a certificate plaque, a letter signed by the assistant surgeon general, and a copy of the book ‘Plaques and Politics: the Story of the United States Public Health Service’ co-authored by C. Everett Koop.
