Each year, the fourth-year medical class nominates and selects the winner. Guidelines for nominations include innovative educational methods, professionalism, and awareness of the educational needs of students. This award is supported by the Hirschmann family, which includes a father and son who are alumni of the College of Medicine.<\/p>\n<p><b>Class of 2018 Hirschmann Prizes<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Basic Sciences: David McMillan, Ph.D., pharmacology and experimental neuroscience\n<li>Clinical: Matt Devries, M.D., radiology\n<\/ul>\n<p>In nominating Dr. McMillan, students praised his &#8220;helpful explanations, amazingly organized handouts, and general enthusiasm.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He has made pharmacology less stressful to learn and has made me think critically about pharmacological treatments,&#8221; one student wrote.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I wish Dr. McMillan would teach every class we have in medical school, and I&#8217;m hoping if we give him awards, he will cherish us as much as we cherish him,&#8221; said another.<\/p>\n<p>Students call Dr. Devries &#8220;engaging,&#8221; a &#8220;good speaker,&#8221; and &#8220;very enthusiastic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He explained things at an M4 level while still challenging us,&#8221; one student said. <\/p>\n<p>UNMC&#8217;s first and second-year medical students also annually recognize outstanding teachers with Golden Apple Awards, which are presented by the medical center&#8217;s chapter of the American Medical Student Association.
