American Dietetic Association Honoring UMaine’s Musgrave

The American Dietetic Association’s Honors Committee has selected Katherine Musgrave, professor emerita of foods and nutrition at the University of Maine, for a 2011 Medallion Award.

The ADA’s Medallion Awards, given each year since 1976, honor ADA members who have shown dedication to the high standards of the dietetics profession through active participation, leadership and devotion to serving others in dietetics and allied health fields. Several awards are given each year to those members whose dedication to the association and service to the profession serve as an example to all.

Musgrave is scheduled to receive the award at the 2011 annual meeting of the American Dietetic Association in San Diego, Calif. Sept 24-27.
