Early Fraternity Life and Career
LeRoy G. Pulver was born February 16, 1893 in Boone, Iowa. After graduating from public school, he attended night school and worked for the railroad for six years. In 1916 his dream came true and he entered Cornell College in Mt. Vernon, Iowa, on a scholarship. He received a Bachelor of Arts from Cornell, a Bachelor of Divinity from Garrett Seminary and a Master of Arts from Northwestern University. He was ordained a minister in the Methodist Church. Since working with young people was his goal, he taught three years at a high school in West Virginia. Next he was head of the Commerce and Political Science Department at Hastings College in Nebraska for three years. Following this, he took one year and two summers of additional graduate work at the University of Iowa. In 1931, he came to Dickinson State College as head of the Commerce Department; and in 1943, was named Dean of Men. These positions he held until his retirement in 1963.1
