What is an Endowd Chair?
A gift of $600,000 is matched by $400,000 from the Board of Regents Support Fund to create a $1,000,000 endowment. Interest generated by the endowment is used to support the work of a nationally recognized authority or scholar in a specific academic area. These scholars help attract outstanding students and enhance the academic reputation of the university.
If you are interested in establishing an endowed chair, please email Jill Bankston or call her at 318-357-4414.
Below is a list of the current fully endowed chairs:
1. Erbon and Marie Wise Endowed Chair in Journalism
2. Melba Law Steeg Endowed Chair in Educational Technology Leadership
3. Charles Ragus Family Endowed Chair in Business
