Will Dunlop
"Will Dunlop was always generous with his time, intellect, and
humor. He enthusiastically took on any student who wanted to work
with him, and thoughtfully guided them through generating ideas
and conducting research. He was always up for a chat, a beer, or a
silly yet intellectual challenge (what other academic placed bets
on fitting "two ships passing in the night" into scholarly
publications?!)
He is gone too soon, but we hope his legacy of supporting students
lives on in this travel award." - Will's friends
