www.niu.edu

Larry Arnhart is an expert in the history of political philosophy and a leading thinker in the field of American political thought, but he might best be described simply as a political animal.

In fact, were all political animals, according to Arnhart. And, as the term implies, we cant truly understand human politics without considering the intrinsic roles of biology and evolution.

The Presidential Research Professorships are NIUs top honors for faculty research and artistry. They have been awarded annually since 1982. Award winners receive special financial support of their research for four years, after which they carry the title of Distinguished Research Professor.
