In Memory of Dale Herspring

Dale Herspring

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our former colleague, Dale Herspring, who died on July 14th.

Dale joined the department in 1993, making significant contributions through his teaching and research in areas such as Russia, National Security, and Civil-Military Relations. He led the department as head from 1993 to 2000. A highly respected and prolific writer, Dale earned the esteemed designation of University Distinguished Professor. He retired from the department in 2015.

Before his tenure with us, Dale dedicated 32 years to serving his country, both in the U.S. Navy and as a Foreign Service Officer. His commitment to public service and academic excellence leaves a lasting legacy.

We will share information regarding services or an obituary as soon as it becomes available.
