The Charles H. Stockton Chair of International Law at the

Manley Hudson
of Harvard regularly came from Cambridge to give the College's International Law lectures.

On 11 July 1951, the

Secretary of the Navy designated the academic post as the Charles H. Stockton Chair of International Law in honor of Rear Admiral Charles Stockton, President of the Naval War College (1891 and 1898-1900), who had been the US Navy's first uniformed expert in international law.[1]

The Stockton Chair was filled by distinguished visiting professors from its establishment until 2014, when the Chairperson of the Stockton Center for International Law was designated as the Stockton Professor. At that time, the Naval War College established the position of Charles H. Stockton Distinguished Scholar-in-Residence, to be held by visiting scholars of the international academic distinction.
