Six degrees of St. Peter's




Andrew Dickson White, who co-founded Cornell University with Ezra Cornell, was a roommate of Thomas F. Davies, rector of St. Peter's (1869-1889) and later bishop of Western Michigan, at Yale University.
White attended Hobart College for a year, leaving because he thought he was wasting his time at a small Episcopal school and should instead be attending a New England university.
