Anthony R. Williams, De Serio Chair Holder for Academic Year 2010

The De Serio Chair began in Academic Year 2009 and provides the incumbent with opportunities to expand and exchange knowledge with students, faculty, the National Intelligence Community, and Unified Command intelligence organizations on the critical role of intelligence in the formulation of national and theater security and strategy, and to enhance public understanding of the vital contributions of strategic intelligence to national security affairs.

This Chair is funded with an endowment through the generosity of Charlotte de Serio, through the Elizabeth Crimian Heuer Foundation, in honor of her late husband, Francis W. de Serio.

General Omar N. Bradley Chair of Strategic Leadership

Dr. Bruce I. Gudmundsson, Bradley Chair Holder for Academic Year 2010

The United States Army War College and Dickinson College jointly established the General Omar N. Bradley Chair of Strategic Leadership. The Chair promotes the study of leadership in the context of security and strategy and from the perspective of the liberal arts and sciences.

Those appointed to the Chair will be recognized authorities and specialists on leadership issues drawn from the military, government, academic, business, and nonprofit sectors. They will teach, write, and take part in public conferences and panels, advancing the understanding of leadership in the community and the nation. And in Academic Year 2010 the Chair will be sponsored by the Army War College.

The USAWC Academic Chairs provide a prestigious and visible means of recognizing and honoring faculty members. These chairs are awarded as honorific recognition of a faculty member's significant contributions to the War College mission or are assigned to a faculty member filling an endowed position or other position-specific relationship. There are a total of 15 Academic Chairs. Thirteen are honorific and are divided between six dedicated to the Departments/Directorates and seven at-large chairs, which may be awarded to any faculty member. The remaining two academic chairs are position specific. All civilian and military faculty are eligible for nomination to an honorific Academic Chair. AWCF recognizes the faculty member's academic excellence by presenting an armchair as a symbol of their achievement.
