In Memoriam: Burleigh Wilkins

On October 13th the Philosophy Department lost a dear colleague, friend, and mentor, Professor Burleigh Wilkins. Burleigh taught for 45 years at the Department. He wrote many books and articles in political philosophy and the philosophy of history, and both his scholarly and his mentoring were celebrated in the volume Essays In Honor of Burleigh Wilkins: From History to Justice (2001). Burleigh loved to teach, and will be vividly remembered by the many students he inspired with his generosity of spirit and love for philosophy. We will miss him.
