Did you know that a former WSU President served as an official for the 1996 Olympic sailing trials? This is just one of the many extraordinary accomplishments that made WSU’s third President Paige E. Mulhollan a dynamic leader and fascinating person. Mulhollan’s presidency (1985-1994) changed the vision, direction, and physical attributes of the campus, and his warm connection with students and staff left a lasting impression. Though Dr. Mulhollan passed away in June of 2012, his legacy remains in and around Wright State University.
