ANNA S.
BROWN AND
RUTH B. LOGAN ENDOWED
CHAIR IN
PRE-MEDICINE Established: October 27, 2000
The purpose of this
endowed chair is to support the Bio-medical program at Murray State
University. The endowed chair will be in
the Department
of Biological Sciences of the College of Science, Engineering and
Technology.
This position was vacant
during 2004-05. The endowed threshold
has not been attained. The endowed
chair will be filled when earnings from the endowment reach a level
sufficient
to attract an appropriate candidate. The endowed chair position
will be filled with an exceptionally gifted and promising young scholar
whose
accomplishments indicate great potential for achievement. Proceeds from
the
endowment will be used to fund the position along with associated
expenses
including travel, start-up costs, and other professional expenses as
permitted
by university policy. It is anticipated that the
endowment and the expertise of the professor will enable greater
recruitment,
retention and graduate placement of pre-med students.
Recruiting, retaining and matriculating bright students
will
promote program loyalty and, often, a return to practice in Kentucky. |
