(including all known Acting-Presidents

Interim-Chancellor - another term found in my research. It has
not been seen in any of the sources that the four known Acting-Presidents
/ Acting-Chancellors were ever officially called Interim-Chancellor.
The on-line
History of UW Oshkosh
does not yet include a complete list of all past Presidents and
Chancellors. The following list was created from on-line searches, the
printed resources listed on my
UW Oshkosh Music Department Sources page,
and finally, for details I could find nowhere else, the ten photographs
displayed on the walls on the second floor of Dempsey Hall.
[[4-08-2009: The photos have been taken down and put in safe storage
while renovations are being done in the hall. They will be remounted
soon.]] A complete list of
all the various names of our School
are listed on my

Interesting Trivia: A Google search of "Who's Who in Wisconsin" finds many people who are supposedly listed in that book, however, an Amazon search finds no such book exists. The only books found that were somewhat related were "Who's Who in Sports in Wisconsin", "Who's Who in the Midwest", Who's Who in the Central States (1929 and 1947 editions), one copy of each are only in the Milwaukee Public Library, UW-Madison and Carroll College (aka Carroll University) libraries, and the 1960 Moore's Who is Who in Wisconsin below, which I have, and, according to WISCAT, about 40 other Libraries in Wisconsin also have. Unfortunately, it lists no Educators.
Moore, John M., Moore's Who is Who in Wisconsin, 1960 - from page iii, "Outstanding men and women representative of Wisconsin's business, economic, and professional life are named."
Has the much quoted "Who's Who in Wisconsin" book ever existed or not?
