"The School of the Arts shares with our colleagues in Philosophy a deep sense of loss at the death of Professor Gill Howie. Gill was an indefatigable advocate of her discipline and department who also understood the role that Philosophy could and should play in the School more broadly. Gill’s humour, clarity and generosity of spirit were very important in the development of a spirit of shared enterprise, and she exemplified the interdisciplinary commitment, in teaching and research, that is our best hope of fulfilling our ambitions. Her intelligence will be much missed."
