On Sept. 14, the MSU community gathered at the Wharton Center for the investiture of the 2022 class of endowed chairs, endowed professors and MSU Foundation professors. The ceremony was a celebration of their accomplishments, as well as a celebration of the philanthropic support that makes these esteemed positions possible.
Graduate and donor Dan Van Haften (’70) spoke about what inspired him to create the Van Haften Endowed Professorship in Deductive Literacy — the first endowed position in the Department of Mathematics, which is now held by François Greer.
Kristen Renn, newly named Mildred B. Erickson Chair in Higher, Adult and Lifelong Education, spoke on behalf of her fellow honorees about the duties they hold to the university, to their fields, to their students and to themselves as MSU’s best and brightest faculty.
President Samuel L. Stanley Jr., M.D., Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs Teresa K. Woodruff and Executive Vice President for Health Sciences Norman J. Beauchamp presided over the medaling ceremony.
