Hugh Urban

Hugh Urban, current director of the Center for the Study of Religion, has been named a College of Arts and Sciences Distinguished Professor of Comparative Studies. This honorific title serves to honor full professor colleagues who have excelled in teaching, service, and research/creative activity, and whose work has demonstrated significant impact on their fields, students, college and university, and/or the public. These professorships are reserved for only the most distinguished faculty: no more than 10% of full professors in the College of Arts and Sciences hold this title at any one time. Congratulations, Hugh Urban!
