Presidents of DePauw University

DePauw University, founded in 1837 as Indiana Asbury University by the Methodist Episcopal Church, has had many well-known and accomplished presidents during its history. From the first and youngest, Matthew Simpson, who was 28 when he assumed the duties, to our newest president, Brian Casey, DePauw's presidents have used their many gifts and talents to further the mission of the university. This exhibit will provide some biographical information (from Clifton Phillips' and John Baughman's DePauw A Pictorial History) with photographs, speeches both in print and recorded and links to collections of their papers
