Ep. 0192: DHP Villains: Woodrow Wilson, Part 3

In this third instalment in the DHP coverage of Woodrow Wilson, we focus on Wilson’s years as President of Princeton University, 1902-1910.

Join CJ as he discusses:

  • The changes and reforms Wilson implemented at Princeton, and others he tried (but failed) to implement
  • His increasingly contentious relationship with some of the trustees, alumni, and administrators, particularly regarding his Quad Plan and the location of the Graduate School
  • A possible affair with Mrs. Mary Allen Peck
