Weingartner Global Initiative
The Weingartner Global Initiative was
initiated in 2008 thanks to the generosity of Werner Weingartner. The
initiative creates a two-year term Professorship and funds two to six student
research positions each year devoted to the study of crucial international policy
issues. In his/her role as mentor to the student recipients of
Weingartner Fellowships, the Weingartner Professor will serve as their project
advisor and involve them in his or her research project.
The Charles Center will serve as the administrative home for this program.
For many years Weingartner taught mathematics at the Bronx High School of Science. After retiring to Hilton Head, S.C., he and his wife, Mary Anne, moved to Williamsburg and immediately became involved in the life of the College.
The initiative is funded with a commitment of $1 million and consists of a Weingartner professor and two student fellows.
