UC Presidents

ABOUT
Ursinus is a respected liberal arts campus, featuring an egalitarian core that’s showcased through curriculum and student attitudes. At its foundation, Ursinus was notoriously religious and all male. Under the service of dedicated presidents, the campus began to shift quickly over time into the respected liberal space it’s today. Presidents are memorable figures in history, usually evoking change and progress during their term. Therefore, our group Memorable UC Presidents plans to conduct a comprehensive history of the presidents from Ursinus’s foundation to present day. There are presently 17 Ursinus presidents. For linguistic purposes, we’re featuring only 5 presidents in our project. In a biographical style, we plan to detail the lives and accomplishments of each selected president during their administrations at Ursinus. Our main objective is to present a full representation of Ursinus through a study of the president’s impacts in shaping our campus into a liberal space.
