Biographical Sketch
In 1954, when a bookstore was added to the Student Union Building, Samuel T. Hanna was persuaded to become its first manager. The jovial "Sam" Hanna, a DePauw graduate who had operated his own bookstore downtown for many years, made the university's entrance into the book business a success from the start. Sam had managed the bookstore from 1953 to 1970. Hanna was in the first class of Rector Scholars and a recipient of the Old Gold Goblet for an outstanding alumnus.
