Congratulations!

The following awards were presented at the 2008 Honors and Awards Convocation

 

 

Ted D. Groshong, MD- Pediatric Nephrology and Chairman, Department of Child Health

Earns the Jane Hickman Teaching Award

The Jane Hickman Teaching Award is historically the highest recognition of excellence in medical student teaching at the University of Missouri-Columbia School of Medicine.  

Jane Hickman, MD, BS Med 1928, maintained an independent spirit throughout her career as an anesthesiologist and in her second love, showing Morgan horses. Born in 1904 in Kirkwood, Mo., Hickman came to Columbia, Mo., to complete high school, her undergraduate degree and the two-year medical school program at MU. She went on to finish her medical degree in 1931 at Rush Medical School in Chicago. After practicing anesthesiology in Shreveport, La., Hickman moved to Peoria, Ill., in 1958 and joined Associated Anesthesiologists, a four-physician group at the time. For the next 12 years, she worked long hours and spent what free time she had showing horses. In 1970, she moved to Austin, Texas, to retire closer to family. Hickman died in 1986, leaving much of her estate to benefit her two passions —medicine and horses.
