Description1850-1857: Reverend Daniel Veech McLean was the first president of the College appointed by the Synod. He spent almost all of his energies selling scholarships hoping to build up an endowment of $100,000. This he accomplished but the Board used the funds collected to pay outstanding bills rather than for investment, which meant no income either in tuition from scholarship students or from endowment. He resigned in disgust, not even willing to stay on until a replacement was found.
