John Harper portrait

The Department of Religious Studies would like to express its gratitude to John Harper who is stepping down after 30 consecutive and faithful years as a member of our Advisory Board. John Harper, Professor Emeritus in the UI Department of English, was appointed to the School of Religion Board of Fellows in May 1993.

We wish to thank John for his dedication to religious studies at the University of Iowa and his support of the department. We have greatly benefited from John's input and advice over the years, and his willingness to go the extra mile for the department. We are truly grateful for John, and we wish him the best in his retirement.
