Campbell<\/a> launched his career as an educator in 1959 as a teaching assistant in pharmacy at the University of Wisconsin and ever since has been influencing people in and out of the classroom.<br \/>\nThe University of Rhode Island professor emeritus of pharmacy and 1957 graduate of the Rhode Island College of Pharmacy and Allied Sciences (now URI\u2019s College of Pharmacy) has held leadership positions with numerous pharmaceutical establishments and organizations around the world. While these speak to his professional expertise, Campbell and his students will tell you that their relationships are what made his work so worthwhile.<br \/>\nFor his commitment to pharmacy students, his contributions to the profession, and lengthy record of service, the American Pharmacists Association has named Campbell the honorary president. The American Pharmacists Association (APhA) represents more than 62,000 practicing pharmacists, pharmaceutical scientists, student pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and others interested in advancing the profession. Each year, members of the association select a member who has made significant contributions to the association as an honorary president. A Pawtucket native who now lives in Narragansett, Campbell will serve a one-year term that runs from 2013 \u2013 2014.<br \/>\n\u201cDr. Campbell has been a professional role model for two generations of pharmacists and pharmacy students. His personal integrity, commitment to his colleagues, and dedication to his profession set a high standard for those that follow,\u201d said <a title=\"E. Paul Larrat, Ph.D., R.Ph.\" href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/pharmacy\/meet\/e-paul-larrat\/\">Paul Larrat<\/a>, Dean of the College of Pharmacy at URI.<br \/>\nIn the classroom, Campbell was practical yet intriguing. \u201cHe was never just a lecturer. He always gave us the information but he also showed us how to apply it, told stories, and used examples. He was there for us,\u201d said <a title=\"Celia MacDonnell, Pharm.D., B.S. Pharmacy\" href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/pharmacy\/meet\/celia-macdonnell\/\">Celia MacDonnell<\/a> \u201875, Pharm. D., and Clinical Professor at the College of Pharmacy at URI.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Norm was really the first one that opened our eyes, or at least exposed us, to the business and legal side of pharmacy and not just the scientific side&#8221;, said Tom Ryan &#8217;75<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Alumni pointed to Campbell\u2019s willingness to go above and beyond for his students. \u201cNorm was really the first one that opened our eyes, or at least exposed us, to the business and legal side of pharmacy and not just the scientific side,\u201d said Tom Ryan, former chairman, president, and CEO of CVS Caremark and URI 1975 Alumni. \u201cHe took his students on various trips to pharmaceutical manufacturers, conventions, and more.\u201d<br \/>\nCampbell was a mentor and a friend.<br \/>\n\u201cI don\u2019t think that there was anyone who didn\u2019t have a personal relationship with him. When you would ask him a question, he wouldn\u2019t just answer your question. He would know you, know things about you, and he would want to help you,\u201d said MacDonnell. \u201cAs a lawyer, he has the ability to look at both sides. You\u2019re not going to get \u2018here\u2019s the right answer\u2019 from him. Ever. He weighs it out, discusses it, and in the end he helps you evaluate. His ethics are so strong, he will help lead you to the right decision\u201d.<br \/>\n<figure style=\"width: 266px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/pharmacy\/2011\/03\/26\/prestigious-national-award\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-style: none;margin: 0px;padding: 0px\" src=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1223\/norm-award.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"266\" height=\"235\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">March 26, 2011, Dr. Norman Campell received the Joseph L. Fink III Founders Award, the American Society for Pharmacy Law&#8217;s highest recognition,<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\nCampbell always had time for everyone because he simply wanted to help. Tony Palmieri \u201971 (B.S) and \u201973 (M.S), associate scholar of the College of Pharmacy at the University of Florida, is deeply grateful for having Campbell in his life. \u201cHe helped me dream, something he and I both do even today. He welcomed me as he did every student, willing to talk, willing to mentor, and most importantly, willing to listen. He never judged me, only listened.\u201d<br \/>\nSubsequently, Palmieri was the man who nominated Campbell to be the honorary president of the national association. \u201cOver the years, Norman has never lost his abilities, nor has he lost his URI roots. My nominating him to be the honorary president of APhA was an obvious and easy thing to do.\u201d<br \/>\nCampbell\u2019s impact on his students never fades. \u201cWhen I started teaching here 12 years ago, Norm gave me a lot of advice on how to be an effective advisor. He told me to always remember my students know what they\u2019re doing and to lead by example. As an advisor, I should provide them with good advice and guide them towards success. I have really followed what he\u2019s told me in regards to that,\u201d said Brett Feret \u201898, Pharm. D., and Clinical Associate professor at the College of Pharmacy.<br \/>\nSimilarly, former chairman, president and CEO of CVS Caremark, Tom Ryan, said he owes much of his success to Campbell. As a student, he needed internship hours and money. Campbell referred him to CVS, the company that Ryan would eventually transform into a national leader. As the former leader of the company, Ryan relied on Campbell\u2019s values and lessons. \u201cThe impact he had on me was the fact that it\u2019s important to give back to the profession or university or community. I saw that in Norm Campbell, a lot. That made a huge impression on me.\u201d<br \/>\nBut where does this genuine interest in his student\u2019s success come from?<br \/>\n\u201cDad sees potential in everyone,\u201d said Linda Carver, pharmacy manager for Rite Aid, URI 1985 graduate, and most importantly, daughter of Campbell. \u201cHe supported whatever I wanted to do. His only request was that my sister and I get a degree so we could take care of ourselves.\u201d<br \/>\nWhen reflecting on her childhood, Carver remembers her father being very busy. \u201cHe was teaching at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy, working at a pharmacy over the weekends, and going to law school at night. But he always made time for us. Family is important to him.\u201d<br \/>\nCampbell\u2019s children spent a great deal of their childhood in the world of pharmacy. \u201cA lot of our family trips growing up were related to pharmacy; APhA conventions, other conventions, road trips, and more. This was a huge advantage. I\u2019ve met so many people that I probably would never have met if it weren\u2019t for Dad. He introduced me not just as his daughter but also as his student. He will connect anyone with who they need to talk to. He wants everybody to succeed and that\u2019s his focus,\u201d said Carver.<br \/>\nCarver\u2019s siblings, Michael Campbell, a 1987 graduate from the Massachusetts Maritime Academy, and Debra Rugg, a 1982 URI graduate of textiles, did not share the same passion for pharmacy. However, they still valued their time spent in the pharmacy world at these conventions and family trips.When asked what he views as his greatest career achievement Campbell responded with ease. \u201cImpacting students\u2019 lives and careers. Years later, when your former students talk to you about what they felt your impact was on their careers, you start to recognize that maybe that\u2019s the greatest achievement; being able to impact positively.\u201d<br \/>\nDr. Campbell uses an automobile assembly line worker as a metaphor for the feelings he had about his students. \u201cWhen the car\u2019s finished, everyone looks at it and can proudly say \u2018I contributed.\u2019 and that\u2019s how I feel about my pharmacy students. I don\u2019t take credit for all of it, but I feel good when I know the job was completed well with my help.\u201d<br \/>\nBeing an advisor was one of the most memorable parts of Campbell\u2019s career. \u201cI got to know the ins and outs of how students think, what their goals and objectives were, and even when I didn\u2019t intend it, that knowledge worked its way back into my lectures and programs. I learned from my students as they learned from me.\u201d<br \/>\nBiographical Notes about Dr. Norman A.
