Senator and Mrs. Charles Grassley are donating his papers during his time in the US Senate to the Rod Library and a gift of an endowed professorship in the Department of Political Science at the University of Northern Iowa. Together, these gestures will honor the extensive legacy of Senator Grassley’s career in public service and continue the longstanding support Senator and Mrs. Grassley have provided to the University of Northern Iowa. The new gift, covering his time in the U.S. Senate, will complete the collection of papers from his entire career in public office, providing researchers, faculty and students a rich source of materials spanning a distinguished career of more than 60 years. Those papers will be delivered at the conclusion of Senator’s Grassley’s service in Washington, DC. Dr. Donna Hoffman has been named the Chuck and Barbara Grassley Professor of Political Science. As the Chuck and Barbara Grassley Professor of Political Science, Hoffman will provide programming to UNI students and the broader community related to her scholarship and the importance of Congress and public service.
