Professor Katzner has been at Bowling Green since 1969. A member of the department during the 1970s and early 1980s he played a central role in developing the applied philosophy focus and the Ph.D. program. From 1985-98 he continued teaching on a limited basis while serving as Vice Provost for Research and Dean of the Graduate College.

His research, publications, and teaching have focused on ethics and social philosophy. He is best known for his work on affirmative action and discrimination--"Is the Favoring of Women and Blacks in Employment and Educational Opportunities Justified?" (Feinberg & Gross, Philosophy of Law). He has also taught philosophy to children and published in this area as well. Most recently, his scholarship has focused on issues in graduate education.
