色香视频 announces dental school scholarship in memory of Dean James B. Hanley
The 色香视频was deeply saddened by the death of James B. Hanley, D.M.D., dean of the College of Dental Medicine, in late May following a battle with cancer. With much love and respect for Hanley鈥檚 career accomplishments and warm friendship, his colleagues in the College of Dental Medicine have named an endowed scholarship fund in his honor. The James B. Hanley Dean鈥檚 Scholarship for Emerging Leaders will provide much-needed scholarship support for dental students in perpetuity at 色香视频鈥檚 dental college.
Hanley joined the 色香视频 community in the spring of 2014, bringing a special blend of professional expertise, leadership, wit, wisdom and kindness to a role he described as his dream job. He found particular joy in working with students, noting that young people 鈥渒eep you on your toes鈥 and offer faculty wonderful opportunities to continue their own lifelong learning.
Hanley鈥檚 dedication to young scholars was reflected in his early support and advocacy for the creation of an endowed dean鈥檚 scholarship for dental students not long after his arrival at 色香视频. He generously provided an early and substantial gift to launch the endowment, and he championed its growth by encouraging faculty and staff to make meaningful contributions of their own. He was thrilled upon learning that his colleagues wished to name the endowment in honor of his service to 色香视频 and the profession of dental medicine.
According to Jon Ryder, D.D.S., executive associate dean in the College of Dental Medicine, the leadership component of the scholarship underscores Hanley鈥檚 heartfelt conviction that 鈥渄entists should be leaders鈥攏ot just of their practices but in their communities as well.鈥 Each annual award to a deserving student will demonstrate Hanley鈥檚 belief in student leadership and community service, and his commitment to academic achievement in the field of oral health.
