Living Legacy
At the heart of Oregon State University's pursuit of excellence are faculty: scholars and scientists who advance knowledge while teaching, challenging, and guiding students. These are the men and women in whom OSU's educational mission lives and breathes.
There is no more effective means of enabling OSU to compete in recruiting and retaining top academic talent than by establishing endowed faculty positions.

— Alexis Walker, holder of the Jo Anne Leonard Petersen Chair in Gerontology & Family Studies, College of Health & Human Sciences |
"The Richardson Chair has allowed me to develop specialty courses and research in areas of greatest interest. This wouldn't be possible if I was obliged to work solely on grant-funded projects."
"The worldwide reach of this gift is immeasurable. The research I am able to do enables OSU to expose people to new ideas and literally influence the future of the field around the globe."
