We envision this program to be a forum for studying societal responses to the current crisis, recovery, resilience, and the reimagining of our lives and work.

The title of Distinguished Professor is the highest honor Pace University bestows upon a faculty member who has a sustained record of extensive, extraordinary contributions in research, teaching and service. It requires independent recommendations from nationally and internationally known scholars in the candidate's field.
