Administration

The Tanner Lectures on Human Values, a nonprofit corporation administered at the University of Utah, is directed by a self-perpetuating Board of Trustees. One position on the Board of Trustees is held by a member of the Tanner family who may participate in all meetings and discussions but has no vote on the formal actions of the Trustees.

A Director appointed by the Trustees administers the general affairs of the corporation. The Director disburses the funds of the corporation and arranges for the editing and publishing of the lectures in a volume issued annually.

The Tanner Lectures are funded by an endowment and other gifts received by the University of Utah from Obert Clark Tanner and Grace Adams Tanner.

All expenses, including the Lecture Awards, the costs of administration, and the editing and publishing of the lectures, are paid from Tanner philanthropies established at the University of Utah.
