About the Belgum Lectures

The Belgum Lectures, now in their 29th year, honor the memory of Eunice Belgum, who graduated from St. Olaf College in 1967. The lecture series was established in the hope that Eunice's tragic death in 1977 would not end her impact on the profession, teaching, and scholarship she loved so much. While the lectures may be on any topic, the philosophy department makes a special effort to choose topics in areas of special interest to Eunice, namely ethics, philosophy of mind, and feminism.

Eunice received a Ph.D. in philosophy from Harvard University. Her dissertation, "Knowing Better: An Account of Akrasia," was published posthumously by Garland Publishers. Upon leaving Harvard, Eunice began an exceptionally promising career in philosophy, teaching at Trinity College and the College of William and Mary. She was one of the original members of the Society for Women in Philosophy.

The lectures are supported by a fund established by Eunice's family and friends.
