Memorial Notes
Stanley Hoffmann Memorial Fund
The Stanley Hoffmann Memorial Fund for the Advancement of the Study of Europe has been established at the Center for European Studies for donations in memory of Professor Stanley Hoffmann. This fund will be used to support programmatic activities, research and teaching at CES, of which Professor Hoffmann was the Founding Chairman (1969-1994) and resident faculty member.
To contribute to the fund and for more information, please contact Laura Falloon.
"Throughout his career, Stanley remained interested in scholars and students for what they had to say and how they reached their conclusions, not for their titles or GPAs."
