Eranda Jayawickreme, associate professor of psychology, has been named Harold W. Tribble Professor of Psychology.

“I’m grateful to receive this endowed professorship, as well as for the opportunity to work at Wake Forest for the past 12 years,” said Jayawickreme. “Wake Forest is one of the leading research hubs for the study of morality and character, and I feel lucky to be at a university that truly lives up to the teacher-scholar model.”

Jayawickreme received the endowed professorship, one of the highest honors the College can award a faculty member, for his significant contributions to teaching, student mentorship, and interdisciplinary scholarship on the intersection of psychology and philosophy involving post-traumatic growth, well-being, moral character, and integrative theories of personality.
