Alexander, Dr. Ralph A. Memorial Lectureship Fund
The Dr. Ralph A. Alexander Memorial Lectureship Fund, established in 1993 by friends and colleagues, honors Professor Ralph Alexander, a valued member of The University of Akron Department of Psychology. He served as chair of the Graduate Program in Industrial and Organizational Psychology and was a senior fellow of the Institute for Life-Span Development and Gerontology. Dr. Alexander was an outstanding psychologist, a fine human being, a Fellow of Divisions 5 and 14 of the American Psychological Association, and a man devoted to teaching and studying psychology. The purpose of the lectureship is to annually bring to The University of Akron campus a distinguished and imaginative speaker for the benefit of students for whom Dr. Alexander cared so deeply and to whom he gave so selflessly. Contributions to the fund are welcome.
