SWAG��Ƶ

The Ludcke Chair, funded by a generous bequest from the estate of Eleanor Ludcke (Westbrook College Class of 1926), is presented annually to a tenured member of the faculty in the College of Arts and Sciences in recognition of their outstanding accomplishments. The Ludcke Chair recipient receives a stipend in support of their development as a teacher and scholar. The chair holder must have attained the ideal of the “teacher/scholar,” a dedicated educator and productive researcher who has given generously of their time to SWAG��Ƶ over a significant period.

The 2024 Ludcke Chair was awarded to Stephen Burt, M.F.A., in May. The lecture will be followed by a reception in the Bush Board Room.
