School of Community Medicine Professor Receives Prestigious Teaching Award
Jeanne Hayes, associate dean of student affairs and assistant professor in the Department of Pediatrics at the OU-TU School of Community Medicine in Tulsa, has been honored with the 2021 Stanton L. Young Master Teacher Award.
The award, now in its 38th year, recognizes University of Oklahoma College of Medicine faculty members for excellence in teaching. It was established through an endowment made by the late Oklahoma City businessman Stanton L. Young. The award comes with a $15,000 cash prize, one of the largest in the nation for medical teaching excellence.
“On behalf of the OU-TU School of Community Medicine, I am particularly happy to congratulate Dr. Hayes upon receiving this prestigious and well-deserved honor,” said James Herman, M.D., MSPH, dean of the OU-TU School of Community Medicine. “Her attention to our medical students as a pediatrics educator and as associate dean for student affairs is exemplary.”
