Gordon - Can you post this to CEDA - L. Kelly As Chair of the American Forensic Association's Professional Development Committee it is my honor to announce the 2008 recipient of the AFA Distinguished Service Award is Dr. Duane Fish of Northwest College. Duane has been Director of Forensics at Northwest College since 1976 and Communication Division Chair since 1992. Numerous organizations have recognized Duane's longtime commitment to teaching and service, especially in regard to his work with forensics. Among some of his awards are: being acknowledged by his alma mater honoring him with the "Distinguished Alumni" award in 2006, recipient of the Outstanding Teaching Award in 2004 by the National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development, was recognized for Distinguished Service by Phi Rho Pi in 2004, Michael Peterson Service to Debate Award in 2003, the B. Aubrey Fisher Award in 1992, Service Award from Phi Rho Pi in 1986 and induction into the Montanta State University Hall of Fame in 1981. District IX is stronger and better for Duane's service to high school and collegiate speech and debate and the AFA is honored to present Professor Duane R. Fish with the 2008 Distinguished Service Award. It is also my pleasure to announce that the recipient of the 2008 Speaker of the Year goes to the late actor Paul Newman for his tireless campaigning on behalf of progressive causes through the nation and around the world and his generous philanthropic work through his food products company 'NEWMAN'S OWN,' which has donated more than a quarter billion dollars to charities since its inception.
