The history of the Maglott name at ONU

Posted by Monty Siekerman on Saturday, April 15, 2017

Professor Eva Maglott was honored on ONU's Founders Day this year because she represents the inclusiveness, determination and achievement of the university.

Eva Sisson was born in Ft. Smith, Ark., in 1860. She enrolled at Northwestern Ohio Normal School in 1876, graduating with an A.B. from the Classical Course in 1878. The school, of course, would later become Ohio Northern University. 

She returned to Ada in 1880 and married professor Frederick Maglott, one of ONU’s original owners. She herself joined the faculty in 1881, teaching mathematics and Latin.
