DONALD E. MANER and CARBON T. STEWART PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT SCHOLARSHIP FUND
This scholarship was created by Donald E. Maner, PharmD, PA-C, and Bonnie A. Dadig, EdD, PA-C. in memory of their friend and colleague Carbon T. Stewart, M.A.R., PA-C, a graduate of the 1974 physician assistant class who passed away in 2012. Carbon was a founding member of the Georgia Association of Physician Assistants and served on the organization's inaugural Board of Directors from 1975-76 before serving as President from 1976-77. He also served as Chairman of the Georgia Delegation to the American Academy of Physician Assistants, House of Delegates, in 1977. Carbon and Donald were both military veterans who served the United States before they became physician assistants.
The fund is to provide financial support to a Augusta University physician assistant student who emulates the qualities that Carbon possessed.
CRITERIA: The recipient of this scholarship must be a rising senior in the Augusta University Physician Assistant Program who is either a patriotic veteran who has honorably defended our country's rights and freedoms or who is the spouse or child of a wounded warrior; who honors the physician assistant's highest ideals and achievements in compassionate health care service; and who fosters and encourages habits of leadership, compassion, and kindness.
