Charles Henry Wharton
Charles Henry Wharton was officially president of Columbia College for a few months in 1801. A clergyman who had returned to the U.S. after being educated in England, he was offered the presidency after taking up the position of rector in a church in New Jersey, but did not show up for convocation in August, and officially resigned that same fall. This makes him an honorary Columbia dropout.
