H. Evan RunnerHoward Evan Runner, often referred to as H. Evan Runner, (born January 28, 1916 in Oxford, Pennsylvania; died March 14, 2002) was professor of philosophy at Calvin College, Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA from 1951 until his retirement in 1981. He was a graduate of Wheaton College, Westminster Theological Seminary and The Free University. It was at the Free University that he was taught by Herman Dooyeweerd and D. H. Th. Vollenhoven. Runner's dissertation applied D. H. Th. Vollenhoven's problem-historical method to Aristotle's Physics. He organised the Groen van Prinster Society (known as the 'Groen Club') and was influential in the setting up of the Association for Reformed Scientific Studies (ARSS) - which later became the Association for Advancement of Christian Scholarship (AAACS) - in 1956. The AAACS eventually became the Institute for Christian Studies (ICS). The ICS's first senior members were all students of Runner.
