People & Leaders

Guiding Lights

The "Guiding Lights" are friends of Emory who have valued the importance of both a strong foundation and continuing growth and who, with their wisdom and vision, have helped to create a premier University.

Presidents

From Ignatius Alonzo Few to James Warren Wagner, Emory has had 18 presidents.

Leaders

If the long, hard quest for Goodrich White's successor had its perils, the year of searching for White's successor's successor was no less interesting. When Walter Martin stepped down from the presidency at the end of June 1962, the trustees appointed three men to run the University until the trustees could find a new president.
