Dr. B. Wayne Blanchard Award for Academic Excellence in Emergency Management Higher Education
NDSU created the Dr. B. Wayne Blanchard Award for Academic Excellence in Emergency Management Higher Education to honor contributions within the Emergency Management Higher Education Community. Dr. Blanchard was asked to be the namesake for the award based on the depth and breadth of his contributions to the field of emergency management. Dr. Blanchard was presented with a plaque commemorating his contributions at the 11th Annual Emergency Management Higher Education Conference by Carol Cwiak (on behalf of the Award Committee).
Nominations for the Dr. B. Wayne Blanchard Award for Academic Excellence in Emergency Management Higher Education are solicited each Spring. To read Dr. Blanchard's biography click here.
