VTWO NEW PROFESSORSHIPS
Kirby Exploration Co., Inc. has provided funds to
establish two professorships in the Center for Edu-
cation and Research in Free Enterprise.
Dr. Steve Pejovich, professor of economics and
director of the Center for Free Enterprise, is the first
holder of the Jeff Montgomery Professorship.
The Montgomery Professorship, to be held by
the director of the Center, honors a 1941 Texas
A&M graduate who was the first president of Kirby
Exploration. Through his leadership efforts and
imagination, the company grew and prospered.
Montgomery continued to provide guidance and
wisdom to the company until his death in 1982.
The second award-the Kirby Distinguished
Professorship-was established by the company
with a matching grant from Texas A&M. Dr. Allan
Meltzer, John M. Olin Professor of Political Econ-
omy and Public Policy at Carnegie Mellon Univer-
sity, is the first recipient. He currently is on leave
from Carnegie Mellon and serves on the Council of
Economic Advisers to the President of the United
States.
Two internationally recognized scholars will be
invited each year to become Kirby Distinguished
Professors. Candidates for the professorship must
be recommended by two or more separate aca-
demic departments at Texas A&M. The Kirby Dis-
tinguished Professor will conduct a public lecture
and a series of graduate seminars in his or her area
of expertise. The appointment will be for one busi-
ness week during an academic semester.Volume 11, Number 1
