Eugene Peters
The memory of Eugene Peters, who taught philosophy at Hiram College from 1962 until his untimely death in 1983, is preserved through the dedication of a seminar room, Hinsdale 121, and the establishment of the Eugene Peters Memorial Prize in Philosophy, awarded each year to a promising philosophy student.
Professor Peters had a special interest in the works of Process Philosophy associated with the work of Alfred North Whitehead and Charles Hartshorne.
Selected Works:
- The creative advance: an introduction to process philosophy as a context for Christian faith.
