$2 Million Gift Endows Kierkegaard Chair at St. Olaf
The Department of Philosophy at St. Olaf College will soon have a new endowed position—the Kierkegaard Chair in Christian Philosophy—thanks to a $2 million gift to the school.
“We are thrilled to know our resources for teaching Christian philosophy, as well as 19th-century continental philosophy (including critics of Christianity), will soon be greatly enhanced,” associate professor of philosophy and department chair Danny Muñoz-Hutchinson said, according to a university press release.St. Olaf College is home to the Howard and Edna Hong Kierkegaard Library.
The donors have chosen to remain anonymous.
But when will they get a Betty White endowed chair?
Congratulations to St. Olaf!
