The rank of University Professor is the highest rank a faculty member can attain in the University. Founded in 1964, the position recognizes "exceptional scholarly merit and distinguished service to Columbia" and must be approved by the trustees [1]. University Professors serve Columbia as a whole rather than a specific faculty or department. Recently, comparative literature professor Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak became the latest faculty member to be appointed University Professor.
