Dr. Luther Christman, PhD, RN, FAAN was inducted into the Hall of Fame of the American Nurses Association. Dr. Christman was recognized for his many significant contributions to nursing, including his role as co-founder of AAMN.
To recognize and celebrate this milestone for men in nursing, the Board of Directors of AAMN has established the Society of Luther Christman Fellows. We expect to induct the charter fellows at the annual conference in Tucson.
The Society of Luther Christman Fellows will:
- Celebrate the achievements of Luther Christman.
- Recognize contributions to nursing made by men.
- Fund AAMN Foundation scholarships to support men in nursing.
- Fund research grants by the AAMN Foundation in areas of men’s health and issues of men in nursing.
- Is open to anyone wishing to be a Luther Christman Fellow.
- Is tax deductible.
What you will receive as a Fellow:
- A medallion symbolic of Dr Christman and AAMN.
- A tax deduction for approximately 90% of the cost of the fellowship.
- Visibility within nursing and prominence in AAMN.
- An opportunity to influence the AAMN Foundations growth and involvement in nursing research grants.
Process:
- An application form will be placed on the AAMN website and printed in Interaction.
- A fee of $1,000 US dollars; can be paid in any amount over a ten year period until the total of $1,000 is attained. At that point you will receive the medallion and be recognized as a fellow.
- Induction at an annual meeting into the Society.
