Endowed Professors
Calhoun Lemon Professor
R. Barton Palmer
The Lemon Professorship was established by the Lemon family to provide for a member of the English faculty who, while a nationally, perhaps internationally recognized scholar, was also a master teacher interested in the mentoring of junior faculty. The endowment provides an expense fund to be used each year in furthering the chairholder's research and fostering mentoring relationships with junior faculty.
