Edward Twichell Ware (1874–May 19, 1927) was an American academic administrator and the third president of Atlanta University (now Clark Atlanta University) from 1907 to 1919.[1][2] Ware graduated from Yale College in 1897, and returned to Atlanta University to help in fundraising efforts.[3] Students perceived Ware as being different from other white people, because he extended common courtesies to black students.[4] His father was Edmund Asa Ware, the first president of Atlanta University.
