“There are many outstanding teachers like Professor Hoyle at Duke," said P&N Chair Scott Huettel. "There are few, if any, who equal his commitment to living an ethical, other-regarding, and spiritual life.”
In 2003, Duke University re-joined approximately 50 other Southern universities in presenting the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award. This award program, sponsored by the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Foundation, recognizes during commencement week one graduating senior and one member of the faculty, staff, or graduate student body of Duke University or Health System for their outstanding commitment to service.

The award seeks to perpetuate the excellence of character and humanitarian service of Algernon Sydney Sullivan by recognizing and honoring such qualities in others, including:
