Biographical Sketch/Agency History

History: Since its conception, Wartburg College has had 17 Presidents serve for the school. Wartburg had its first President in 1852 when Georg Grossmann was elected into office. He served two nonconsecutive terms from 1852 to 1868 and 1878 to 1894. In between his two terms, John Klindworth and Sigmund Fritschel acted as President. Klindworth was in office from 1868 to 1875, while Fritschel served from 1875 to 1885.

Succeeding Grossmann’s second term, Friedrich Richter was inaugurated as President of Wartburg. His term lasted from 1894 to 1899. In 1894 Friedrich Lutz also began his time in office until 1905. Otto Kraushaar began his term during this time in 1899. He was in office until 1907 when he was replaced by his successor, John Fritschel. Fritschel served his term from 1907 to 1919. In 1909 August Engelbrecht was sworn into office until 1933. During this time in 1919, Otto Proehl began his term. He would act a President until 1935.

Edward J. Braulick took office after Proehl in 1935 to 1945. He was then followed by Conrad Becker from 1945 to 1964.  Ten years later, in 1974, William Jellema was appointed President. His term ended in 1980 when Robert L. Vogel took up the mantel. Vogel acted as President from 1980 to 1998. In 1998, Jack R. Ohle became president. He served until the end of his term in 2008. Finally, the acting President of Wartburg, Darrel D. Colson, was elected. He currently holds the president’s position at the school.

*Note: Presidential terms overlapped due to multiple Wartburg College locations.
