La Salle Mourns the Passing of Michael J. Kerlin, Philosophy Professor for 40 Years
Michael J. Kerlin, Ph.D., who taught Philosophy for 40 years at La Salle University, died November 23 after a long bout with Leukemia. He was 71.

He had a wide range of interests, and earned advanced several degrees to bolster his teaching. At 52, he earned an MBA from La Salle in 1988 and subsequently taught business ethics.

“He felt he should study what the business students were studying if he was going to teach ethics to them,” said Marc Moreau, Ph.D., current chair of La Salle’s philosophy Department.
