Cline William E. Carpenter D. P. Simison When the founders and benefactors of DePauw university are mentioned. the Trustees, l suspect. do not have the large consideration that they deserve. The success of the institution both educationally and materially has been more largely due to them than to any other body however large. The personnel of the body has been outstanding from the beginning. made up of the prominent men of the state and nation. One is led to wonder that so early, with such small beginnings. men of such prominence were willing to join their fortunes with that of the University. ln addition to many men of large business inter- ests. there have been eight bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church. two members of the Presidents cabinet. one Vice-president of the United States. two United States senators. three governors of the State. two lieutenant-governors. the attorney-general of Indiana: and many bank presidents, judges. editors of prominent papers. educators. and men of letters, There are three sources from which the University might reasonably look for its endowment and material equipment: the great church with its millions of members and money: from the fifteen or more thousands of graduates and former students: and from its Board of Trustees never numbering at any time more than thirty-four. The remarkable almost startling fact is that at least seventy-five per cent of all the assets of the University came from this small group-the Board of Trustees. The debt of gratitude that is owed to the Board of Trustees and to its president. lVlr. Roy O. West. former Secretary of the lnterior. is hard to ade- quately estimate, and will be difficult to pay. -Henry B. Longden Ttuenly f seven
