Lawrence Sullivan “Sul” Ross (1838–1898), soldier, statesman, and university president, was born at Bentonsport, Iowa Territory, on Sept. 27, 1838. Sul's love for action and horses involved him in his first Indian fight while he was still a boy, after his family moved to Texas. Although his early ambition was to be an Indian fighter like his father, he recognized the value of education and enrolled at Baylor University in Independence, Texas, and then at the Wesleyan University in Florence, Alabama, where he obtained his A.B. degree in 1859.
