William Sonis, M.D., has been selected by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) to receive the 2008 Parker J. Palmer Courage to Teach Award. Sonis is a a child and adolescent psychiatrist at Drexel University College of Medicine and Friends Hospital in Philadelphia.
The award is given to distinguished program directors in recognition of their commitment to teaching and development of innovative and effective residency programs. The award is named after Parker J. Palmer, Ph.D., a senior adviser at the Fetzer Institute and the author of The Courage to Teach: Exploring the Inner Landscape of a Teacher's Life. Nominations are made by faculty and residents.
Of this year's 10 awardees, Sonis was the only psychiatrist.
“Parker Palmer reports that we do not teach what we are, but instead teach who we are. It is especially important at this time that the teachers of medicine live the values of medicine,” noted David Leach, M.D., CEO and executive director of the ACGME. ▪
