A university is only as good as its people. It's an idea we've taken to heart, and it's a big reason why endowed professorships are one of the University's top priorities. Through these endowments, we've been able to invest more deeply in our people than ever before. Thanks to the BrownTogether campaign, the University has already raised more than 70 chairs and recruited faculty from some of the world's leading research institutes. From the arts to brain science to political science, these brilliant minds are helping to educate the next generation of thought leaders and making Brown a beacon for knowledge and scholarship.
