2007-08 Alumni Professorships

The UNO Alumni Association provides 12 professorships, which have totaled $817,500 in the past 24 years.

 

The professorships began in 1983 when, during UNO's Diamond Jubilee celebration, the UNO Alumni Association conducted a fund-raising campaign to establish professorships in each of the university's colleges to recognize distinguished faculty performance in teaching and research. Professorships were named in honor of longtime past and present faculty members who served with distinction in their respective academic areas.

 

Current holders of the professorships are listed below. Click on links for biography pages of current recipients (where available).
