Dan Rouser

Trustee at Wichita State University

Growing up as a feral child in a small Kansas town, Rouser gravitated to the public library and a taste for books, later to become an addiction, was born. His mother, aunts and uncles were all one-room school house teachers.

He received such a fine education at Wichita’s North High school that he was able to drift through WSU, where he encountered superb minds and became a fan of such intellectual activity. It took him seven years to graduate, punctuated by working as a reporter at the Eagle/Beacon, a police officer and in a statewide political campaign. He managed a blisterpop band of WSU students and believes that the faculty recitals at WSU present some of the best chamber music in the state.

He has been a volunteer at the Ulrich museum.
