| Summary |
Portrait of Wesley Wentz Posvar, 15th Chancellor of the University of Pittsburgh. Posvar served from 1967 to 1991. He guided the University through the tough Vietnam War years and succeeded despite inheriting massive debt from other administrations. During ℓhis tenure, more than two million square feet were added to the campus. Among the additions were ℓForbes Quadrangle, Benedum Hall of Engineering, Mervis Hall, Law Building, the LRDC and other buildings. ℓEnrollment grew, library holdings increased significantly and more research funds were donated than ever before. He created the Honors Program (later renamed the Honors College), the University Center for International Studies, the Center for the Philosophy of Science and other academic units. |
