Dr. J. Patrick Leverett served as a faculty member in The Citadel’s Department of Psychology for 10 years. In July of 2005, Pat died tragically in a plane crash in Alaska. Upon his death, this annual event was created in his honor, and to commemorate his many contributions to The Citadel. Kind, compassionate, and dedicated, Pat Leverett was a skilled clinician, a gifted teacher, a beloved colleague, and a devoted mentor. Dr. Leverett was respected for the professionalism he brought to his work, which set a standard for his peers and served as a model for his students. Each year The Department of Psychology invites a guest speaker to give the Leverett Lecture and opens the event to all faculty, staff, students, and the community.
