Three health science professors have recently been nominated as finalists for two Belmont University faculty awards.

Dr. Martha Buckner, professor in the School of Nursing, is one of three finalists for the 2011-12 Chaney Distinguished Professor Award, the highest honor presented annually to a Belmont faculty member.  The award will be presented at graduation ceremonies on May 5th.  Learn more about Dr. Buckner at her profile page.

In addition, Dr. Leslie Folds, Associate Professor in the School of Nursing, and Dr. Kelley Kiningham, Assistant Professor in the College of Pharmacy, have been nominated with two other Belmont faculty members as finalists for the Presidential Faculty Achievement Award for 2011-2012.  This award will be presented at Scholarship and Awards Day on April 18.  The Presidential Faculty Achievement Award recognizes excellence in helping to make Belmont University a student-centered community through their support of our students outside of the classroom.  Learn more about Dr. Folds at her profile page and about Dr. Kiningham at her profile page.
