Biographical notes:

The early beginnings of the Office of University Relations can be found in 1927, when Willis T. Spivey, director of the Evening School, took on the role of director of publicity. He was joined in 1928 by a publicity secretary, Irma Schultz, who became director of public relations in 1939. In 1948, the public relations office came under the purview of Drexel's first vice president, Allen T. Bonnell. Public relations moved briefly to the development office around 1965, until Ralph Bintzer became Drexel's first vice president for university relations in 1968 or 1969. The responsibilities of the Office of University Relations included, at various times, publicity and public relations, fundraising and development, graduate placement, government relations, publications, and alumni relations.
