duties some time after commencement, and "ill probably move to Grecncastle prior to the opening of
school next September.
Dr. Oxnam is one of the be.-t know n public men on both the Atlantic coast, where be has been for the past two )cars, and on the Pacific coast, where he lived prior to going to Boston University. He is known to several Grecncastle men, anil to inuii) of the faculty of DePauw University. Dr. Oxnam is a man of great energy. He is a tireless worker and is rated as one of the most popular if not the best liked, public speaker in the East among educational men. He has the same high standing on the Pacific Coast. He is a man who will probably inaugurate some new policies at DePauw University and will no doubt make some changes in the personnel, of the school during the next few year.-. At least this indicatod by some who have been in more or less close touch with him since it became known he would be the new
president.
Dr. Oxnam is rated in the millionaire class, and this will be something new for a DePauw president. The salary has not been the attractive thing here. He is seeking a higher place in the educational field, having attained the peak in the financial field ! some time ago.
