Messrs. Milton, Kitto, and Charrier (Inbox, March issue) make a compelling case that former President Goheen should be honored by Princeton, but they have not explained why SPIA should be renamed again. A more appropriate honor would be to establish a Robert F. Goheen professorship at SPIA. If the trustees decide the SPIA must be renamed again, other deserving candidates include former Secretaries of State George Shultz ’42 and James Baker ’52 and career ambassador Marie Yovanovitch ’80.
Editor’s note: Princeton has a professorship in the humanities that honors Goheen, formerly held by Nobel laureate Toni Morrison.
