Description
In more than 50 years of association with Lipscomb University, Dr. Dennis Loyd became one of the university’s most beloved teachers. He taught high school English and journalism at Lipscomb before joining the college faculty, where he advanced to the rank of Professor of English and to chair the department. He served twice as Dean of Students, appeared frequently in dramatic productions, and served churches as a minister and elder. Dr. Loyd easily transferred his love for literature to students, who were warmed by his sincerity, his personal interest in their academic and spiritual growth, and his mentorship. His is a “goodly heritage” that will bear fruit for generations.
