Jack Henry, a fourth-year graduate student and teaching assistant in the Department of Philosophy, has been awarded the Harry K. Wolfe Memorial Scholarship for academic year 2024-2025.

Harry Wolfe, a ground-breaking psychologist and philosopher, was integral to the founding of the department at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln (UNL) in 1889 and served as its chair until 1897. This scholarship named in his honor provides fellowships to graduate students in the Departments of Philosophy and Psychology.

Henry received an MA and an MSc (both in philosophy) from the University of Glasgow and is working towards his Ph.D. at UNL. His research interests include metaethics, specifically moral rationalism, and moral psychology, and his other philosophical interests extend to logic, philosophy of mind, and epistemology.
