Collection: H-Sites: Harvard Life and Learning
Description: Drew Gilpin Faust (1947- ) served as the 28th president of Harvard University from 2007 to 2018, the first woman in that role and the first Harvard president since 1672 without an undergraduate or graduate degree from Harvard. Faust received her bachelor’s degree in history from Bryn Mawr College in 1968, and her master’s degree and doctorate in American Civilization from the University of Pennsylvania in 1971 and 1975. For 25 years, Faust was Professor of History at the University of Pennsylvania, before becoming the founding Dean for the Radcliffe Institute at Harvard in 2001. As dean, Faust worked to expand the institute into a wide-ranging multidisciplinary focus and creative enterprise that explored new knowledge in traditional fields. As Harvard president, Faust was known for expanding financial aid access across Harvard College, advocating for increased federal funding for scientific research, returning the ROTC to Harvard campus, and overseeing a record breaking $9 million capital campaign. Needs bio note here. Professor Faust's website provides information on lectures, speeches, publications, events, news, and her career. Collected by the Harvard University Archives as part of the personal archive of Drew Gilpin Faust.
