Westel W. Willoughby
Westel Woodbury Willoughby (20 July 1867 – 25 March 1945), was an American academic.
He was the twin brother to William F. Willoughby. They were the sons of Westel Willoughby and Jennie Rebecca (Woodbury) Willoughby, their father having been a Major in the Union Army with the New York Volunteers, injured at the Battle of Chancellorsville. The elder Willoughby served on the Supreme Court of Appeals for Virginia following the war and presided over the ''Custis case'' in which the land for Arlington National Cemetery was awarded to the U.S. Government.
Westel Woodbury Willoughby graduated with an A.B. from Johns Hopkins University in the class of 1888, continued with graduate work and received his Ph.D from Hopkins in 1891 at a time when political science was not yet recognized as a separate discipline. His degree was awarded by the combined departments of history and economics.
On 27 June 1893, he was married to Grace Robinson, daughter of Franklin Marvin Robinson, a prominent lawyer of Dubuque, Iowa. After practicing law for a few years with his father in Washington, D.C., Westel W. Willoughby responded to a call from Hopkins to join the faculty in 1898. He moved to Roland Park, Maryland along with his wife Grace and their two young children Westel Robinson Willoughby (Robinson) and Laura Robinson Willoughby.
At the urging of Professor Willoughby, Johns Hopkins created the first department of Political Science under his leadership and with him as the only professor. He continued to lead this department until his retirement at the age of 65 in 1932. He helped to found the American Political Science Association and served as its 10th President. Some have referred to him as the father of modern political science thanks to his prolific writing. He published many books over the span of his career at Hopkins. His first, entitled The Nature of the State was published in 1898. From there, he went on to establish himself as one of the foremost authorities on Constitutional Law and the workings of the Supreme Court of the United States.
Willoughby was invited as a guest lecturer to China when he responded to a request from the Chinese Government in 1917 to assist as a Constitutional and Legal advisor for a period of one year. As a result of this work, he became a frequent advisor to the Chinese Government including the Washington Naval Conference in 1921 and the two Opium Conferences in Geneva in 1924-1925 and again in 1931 where he also served as advisor to the Chinese delegation to the League of Nations. His numerous writings on China and Japan and their relationships prior to World War II are classics that are still used in education to this day. The Chinese Government awarded him the Order of Merit and the Order of the Golden Grain in appreciation for his contribution.
His wife Grace, predeceased him by nearly 30 years in 1907 when she died at the age of just 36 and was buried at Linwood Cemetery in her hometown of Dubuque. Thus, Dr. Willoughby was left a widower and single parent of two young children. He never remarried. Along with his brother William Franklin Willoughby, himself an accomplished economist and political scientist, he bought a small island called Endiang on Stoney Lake north of Toronto in 1908 where he and his family spent their summers.
Dr. Willoughby continued to make his home in Baltimore until his death on 25 March 1945.
