ACHA 2005 PRESIDENTIAL CITATIONS The Opening General Session will include the awarding of two ACHA Presidential Citations, which are intended to recognize national or international scholars, researchers, politicians, activists, celebrities, or national/international organizations who have made outstanding contributions directly or indirectly impacting the health and wellness of college students and other members of the campus community. It is our privilege to present this year’s ACHA Presidential Citations to Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) and Joycelyn Elders, MD, former U.S. Surgeon General. Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) Senator Tom Harkin of Iowa has focused on education and health-related legislation as a member of both the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate.As ranking Democrat on the Senate panel that funds most health programs, he’s guided efforts to focus more on prevention and early intervention. His passion for improving quality of care is further evidenced by his authorship of the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act. Senator Harkin has engaged in significant work related to the development of the Healthy Lifestyle and Prevention (HeLP) America Act, which is intended to improve the health of Americans and to reduce health care costs.This work intersects with the interests and work of the association and individual members, and it is grounded in the Healthy People 2010 agenda. Senator Harkin’s recent efforts to expand the focus of the HeLP Act to include resources for the college student population is to be commended. Joycelyn Elders, MD Dr. Joycelyn Elders’ dedicated work as the 16th Surgeon General of the United States — the first African-American woman to hold that post — faculty researcher and professor at University of Arkansas, and lifelong public health advocate, is an inspiration to professionals in the health care field. Over the course of Dr. Elders’ career, she has championed health care concerns that intersect with those of the college health field: illness prevention, sexuality education, drug abuse and intervention, and advocacy for public health vs. private profit in health care reform. Dr. Elders’ progressive policies and continuing efforts to bring controversial issues into public debate have contributed significantly to productive discourse on health issues and health promotion.
