Bayard Wickliffe Heath Memorial Lecture Series on U.S. Antitrust Policy

Fund Purpose
Support a series of annual lectures by prominent scholars on the status and enforcement of antitrust policy, particularly with respect to anti-competitive practices; donor's wish is to support generally 2 lectures annually, preferably in Feb and Oct, but with administrative flexibility as to frequency and timing depending upon speaker availability and cost per lecture; to insure adequate funding, Public Policy Center in Warrington College of Business Administration agrees to permanently co-sponsor the lecture series and provide funding for 1/2 the honoraria and other incidental costs associated with the lectures series. Donor requests that responsibility for selecting invited scholars and arranging annual lectures be institutionalized and shared by the Director of the Public Policy Research Center in Warrington College of Business and the Dean of the Levin College of Law, or their designees. In addition, there will be an annual advisory committee, which shall include the donor, to assist in process of selecting and securing speakers. Each announcement of invited lectures should include a brief biography of Mr. Heath and his lifetime commitment to enforcement of antitrust statutes.
