2nd president of Jefferson College (1803–1811) |
James Dunlap was the second president of Jefferson College from 1803 to 1811. Dunlap was born in Chester County, Pennsylvania, in 1744.[1] He was graduate of the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University) and was reputed to have excelled as a teacher of languages.[1] During his presidency, in 1807 Jefferson College was approached by the Washington College Board to appoint committees for the purpose of devising a plan for the union of the two institutions.[1] This attempt failed over disagreement over selecting a site for the united institution.[1] Dunlap resigned his presidency on April 25, 1811. He died in Abingdon, Pennsylvania, on November 22, 1818.[1]
