Michael Ing, a scholar of early Confucianism and of Chinese religions more generally, with primary interests in ritual studies and religious ethics, has been promoted to full professor at Indiana University in the Department of Religious Studies. Lately he has begun a new avenue of research in native Hawaiian (Kanaka) thought, supported by a Mellon Foundation New Directions fellowship which allowed him to pursue serious study of the Hawaiian language. His second book is entitled The Vulnerability of Integrity in Early Confucian Thought.
