The Savage Endowment
The faculty committee appointed to oversee the Carlton Raymond and Wilberta Ripley Savage Visiting Professorship in International Relations and Peace invites proposals to create programs designed to fulfill the goals of the Savage Endowment. The Savage Endowment for International Relations and Peace Committee will oversee the disbursal of $50,000 for two years starting in 2008-09. This sum is used to fund comprehensive programs designed to inspire students to “make their own contribution to the development of reasonableness as a substitute for violence and hate in personal, national and international affairs” (Declaration of Gift, p.2).
These programs allow the University to bring to campus outstanding inpiduals with backgrounds in international relations and peace, and to teach the campus community how to use reason as a substitute for violence and hate. Program proposals spanning two academic years are preferred. The committee is especially interested in programs that will have a lasting, durable impact on the campus intellectual life.
