Abstract

nate whel an-jackson Capital University stua rt rosenbaum passed on December 14, 2020. A longtime member of SAAP and leader in other societies, he was well-known to many of us and will be fondly remembered for his kindness, his quiet humor, his insight, and his support of this community. He was a loving father and grandfather who will be deeply missed. For me, he was a mentor with unceasing generosity. Stuart transformed Baylor University’s Philosophy Department by de- signing and launching the PhD program. In the years before, he had been a crucial part of Baylor’s MA program, and several of his students have gone on to work in colleges and universities. He was the first program director, and after that an encouraging, supportive yet critical presence around the department. When we learned of Stuart’s passing, a friend from Baylor and I were catching up. One of my friend’s comments struck me: “He was one of the real ones.” My friend isn’t an Americanist and never took a class with Stuart, but Stuart left a mark anyway.
