Professor Susan C. Karant-Nunn,
Director of the Division for Late Medieval and Reformation
Studies, has been named to the rank of Regents' Professor of History at
the University of Arizona.
The title "Regents' Professor"
represents the
highest of faculty ranks and is conferred on only three percent
of the tenured faculty, whose exceptional scholarship and
outstanding achievements have earned them national and
international recognition. Each nominee faces a rigorous
nomination process and is expected to exemplify the highest
academic merit in scholarship, research, and teaching.

Professor Ute Lotz-Heumann
has been chosen as the first regular occupant of the Heiko A.
Oberman Chair in Late Medieval and Reformation History.
Lotz-Heumann’s accomplishments thus far and her promise for the
future made her the outstanding candidate for the Oberman Chair
among a field of finalists who were uniformly distinguished.
In a
period of just nine years since obtaining the Ph.D. at Humboldt
University in Berlin, Lotz-Heumann has achieved more than many
of us do over decades.

YOUR GIFT DOUBLED!
Anonymous Donor Will Match All Gifts Made to the Oberman
Library/Chair
We have received outstanding
news that a benefactor who wishes to remain anonymous will match
gifts to the Oberman Library/Chair made before December 31,
2010, to an aggregate maximum of $300,000.
As the amount of funds raised currently stands at $1.5 million, the
completion of this match will put us within a hair's breadth of
our $2 million goal.
Contributions to the fund will help preserve the incomparable and
valuable Oberman Research Library for the state of Arizona and
simultaneously create an endowment for a professorial Chair in
Late Medieval and Reformation History.
Through this endowment we seek to perpetuate the legacy of Heiko A.
Oberman (1930-2001), one of the twentieth century's great
historians of the Reformation and winner of the 1996 Heineken
Prize for History, who founded the Division for Late Medieval
and Reformation Studies at the University of Arizona in 1986. |
