Through their powerful contributions to research, teaching, and public service, our faculty are the cornerstone of the Whiting School\u2019s research and academic excellence.<\/p>\n<p>By providing an environment where scholars can actively pursue their interests without compromise and a culture that encourages interdisciplinary cooperation, the Whiting School has positioned itself as a national and international leader in engineering. To maintain this position of preeminence, we must continue to support and reward our world-class faculty. The most powerful way we can do this is through endowed professorships.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1339\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"width: 499px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/ReynoldsProf.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1339\" src=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/ReynoldsProf.jpg\" alt=\"Reynolds_Professorship\" width=\"489\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/ReynoldsProf.jpg 489w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/magazine-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/ReynoldsProf-300x248.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 489px) 100vw, 489px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Left: The Joseph R. and Lynn C.
