"Pop" Whitten Society

Ray Howard Whitten became the sixth president of Woodbury Business College in 1922. Students soon began addressing him as “Pop” Whitten because of his openness and genuine concern for all Woodbury students. During his tenure, Whitten transformed the school from a traditional business school into a college of higher learning. In 1937, “Pop” moved the college to a new administration and classroom facility at 1027 Wilshire Blvd.

He is remembered as an innovative educator who left a lasting mark on our university. Friends of Woodbury can share in “Pop” Whitten’s legacy by leaving gifts from their estates, whether through a will or other estate-planning vehicles, to Woodbury University.

For details about the “Pop” Whitten Heritage Society, please contact the Office of Advancement at (818) 252-5214.
