  • History and Character of Drake University (Taken from Drake University Undergraduate 2005-06 Catalog)
    History and Character of Drake University (taken from Drake University Undergraduate 2005-06 Catalog) It was an ambitious undertaking. Confronted with declining economic conditions, the Disciples of Christ in Iowa were faced with the decision to move their established Oskaloosa College, the first Christian college founded in Iowa, to another location. In 1881, a zealous group, led by George Thomas Carpenter, journeyed to Des Moines, where they found support for their proposed move. In March 1881, bolstered with a $20,000 pledge from General Francis Marion Drake of Centerville, Iowa, the educational institution became a reality. In gratitude, the University’s trustees named their institution after General Drake, a Civil War general, former Iowa governor, banker, railroad builder and attorney. This was Drake University’s modest beginning. Its founders dreamed of an institution that was broad-based and liberally nonsectarian. To establish the educational climate in which the University would operate, they issued the following statement: ‘‘This University has been designed upon a broad, liberal and modern basis. The articles of incorporation provide that all its departments shall be open to all without distinction of sex, religion or race. In its management and influence, it will aim at being Christian, without being sectarian.’’ While corporate affiliation with the Disciples was eventually terminated, the University continues to be guided by this statement of nondiscrimination and the progressive vision of its founders. During the administration of Drake’s first president and chancellor, George T. Carpenter (1881-1893), the University established itself as an integral part of a young and growing community in the world’s richest agricultural area.
