DENTON — Dr. William Cissell, professor of health studies at Texas Woman’s University, will be inducted into the Health Education Hall of Fame of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance. The award will be presented at the AAHPERD annual conference in April 2004 in New Orleans.

The Health Education Hall of Fame is a grassroots peer recognition organization honoring outstanding professional contributions in the field of health education, health promotion and disease prevention. Members are elected into the Hall of Fame by their peers and students. Dr. Cissell received more votes than any other 2004 inductee.

“I’ve derived considerable pleasure throughout my career by mentoring students,” Dr. Cissell said. “It’s rewarding to help students learn to appreciate the profession they’re entering and inspire them to contribute to its advancement.”
