BUSM's highest teaching honor, the award recognizes an outstanding educator and acknowledges the importance of teaching skills and commitment to students and education. 

This award is presented to faculty who best demonstrate the foundation's ideals of outstanding compassion in the delivery of care, respect for patients, their families and health-care colleagues, as well as clinical excellence.

Nine BUSM faculty members have been honored as Educators of the Year by the Committee on Faculty Affairs. 

Students, alumni and employees of the Office of Financial and Grants Administration and the Office of Proposal Development volunteered at the Pine Street Inn and A Room to Grow.

Congratulations to the students and residents inducted into the Gold Humanism Honor Society this year!
