Van Mildert Professor of Divinity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Van Mildert Professor of Divinity is one of the oldest professorships at Durham University. The chair is named in honour of Bishop William Van Mildert, one of the founders of the University. The holder of the Van Mildert chair is also a residentiary resident canon at Durham Cathedral, thus one of the requirements of post holder is to be an ordained Anglican priest. Professor Mark McIntosh will succeed Rev Canon Prof David Brown in September 2009 [1].
