Duke Haddad-Birth of a New School of Philanthropy

By Duke Haddad, Ed.D.

As a doctor of education, and not medicine, I had only witnessed one live birth — that of my beautiful daughter — until now. On April 9, I was honored to be a witness to the inauguration of the new Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at Indiana University.

Hank Rosso, one of the fathers of modern philanthropy in this country, brought his fundraising school to Indiana University to create the Center on Philanthropy in 1987. As Dr. Emmett D. Carson noted in his keynote address at this event, "Hank Rosso, Charles Stevens, Bob Payton and Eugene Tempel all led the charge for a greater study of philanthropy in the world."
