The Morton B. Duggan, Jr. Memorial Education Recognition Award is awarded to a student currently enrolled in an accredited respiratory care education program. Applicants or nominees are accepted from all states, with preference given to candidates from Georgia and South Carolina. An original referenced paper on some aspect of respiratory care must be submitted. The paper should include a cover page giving only the title of the paper. The paper should be devoid of any information such as the applicant's name, address, or school that could provide a bias in the evaluation. Candidates must also submit letters of recommendation from the program director or other senior faculty member and from the medical director or other physician instructor attesting to: approval of candidate's paper; candidate's worthiness for the award; and candidate's potential for a career in the profession of respiratory care. Previous undergraduate award recipients are eligible to reapply. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Respiratory Care Foundation for more information.
