Knight, Charles M. Endowed Lectureship

The University established The Charles M. Knight Endowed Lectureship in 1986 when Lovina M. Knight of »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp generously provided an endowment for a lectureship in honor of her grandfather who founded chemistry studies at The »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp more than a century ago. Dr. Charles M. Knight was a scholar and chemist who established chemistry studies at Buchtel College, predecessor to The »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp. Most revered for his devotion to the teaching and study of chemistry, he began a tradition that has remained integral to chemistry at the University. The endowment enables an internationally or nationally distinguished scholar to come to »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp each year to spend time with chemistry faculty and students and offer a public lecture.
