Freed-Hardeman Coll ege bestowed the honor this spring, following Murray State University, where he earned his bachel or's and master's degrees, and the University of Kentucky, site of his doctoral· study. But honors are not new to the. s'eventh president of MSU and the man who has served it longer than any ot her+-'now well into his 20th year. It was the spring of 1971 when Dr. Doran, a native of Graves County, Ky., joined a select group of about 200 Americans chosen as recipients of Horatio Alger Awards. He became the fourth Kentuckian so honored and the only educator of that year. Horatio Alger Awards are sponsored by the American Schools and Colleges Association, a non-profit corporation committed to education and American traditio ns of equality of opportunity, industry and achievement. The awards were creat ed to honor business and professional leaders, who, in the spirit of Horatio Alger, have overcome humble circumstances to attain unquestioned success.
