UO Endowed Chairs and Professorships

Endowed faculty positions make a tremendous difference in the university's ability to retain top facultymembers and to recruit new professors who bring fresh perspectives to campus. When a donor establishesan endowed chair or professorship, the endowment is invested, with only a portion of the investmentearnings spent for the position. The annual allocation can be used to supplement a professor's salary andprovide funds for such purposes as hiring graduate assistants or interns, or for travel, research, or supplies.
