The Christine Scott Nelson ’73 Endowed Professorship in Environmental Science

Talk with anyone about their Allegheny experience and, without fail, they will tell you about the world-class faculty who taught, mentored and changed their lives when they were students. With that in mind, the Our Allegheny: Our Third Century Quest campaign raised nearly $37.5 million for faculty support to provide funds for professional development, visiting scholars and artists, and student-faculty research, as well as a number of new professorships, supporting academic programs in political science, interdisciplinary studies, economics, environmental science, art, geology, biology and more. The funds raised for professorships help to recruit and retain faculty and also to give them the resources they need to keep pace with rapidly changing disciplines and student needs.
