Love received his advanced training at the University of Iowa. He welcomed input from faculty and students about the direction of the University. An academic council was established to advise his administration. He met regularly with the Student Life Council and was considered a forerunner of how modern university presidents seek student participation in an institution’s affairs. His administration came to later be known as the “era of good feelings.”
