A Triple Win for Philosophy at Trent U

Leo Groarke, president and vice chancellor of Canada's Trent University, last week announced that he would donate $50,000 to create an endowment in honor of his brothers, Louis and Paul Groarke, to support philosophy programs. The brothers (at right) have an unusual distinction: they are identical triplets, and until Leo was appointed president, all three were philosophy professors at Canadian universities. Leo taught at Wilfrid Laurier University before moving to Trent. Louis teaches at St. Francis Xavier University. Paul teaches at St. Thomas University.
