Subject
The Fire of 1923, Elon University
Description
William Harper was the president of what was then called, Elon College, for twenty years. In the years he worked he dealt with the effects of World War 1, the Spanish Influenza, and the fire of 1923 which struck the Administration Building. William Harper helped rebuild Elon after one of its most devastating events, contacting any and everyone who may be able to help. President Harper was one of the driving forces behind the "Greater Elon" plan and is one of the main reasons as to why the campus is, as it is today.
