Harvard’s Hollis Professor of Divinity is the oldest endowed chair in American higher education and legend has it that this position comes with the right to graze your cows in Harvard Yard. Professor Harvey Cox is celebrating his retirement from the Hollis chair by borrowing a cow. She’ll graze in the Yard and take part in Cox’s retirement celebration on September 10th. Not wanting to pass up such great publicity, HarperCollins has moved the upcoming publication of Cox’s book to match the cow’s Harvard visit. (Harvard press release)
