Ronald E. Carrier (August 18, 1932 – September 18, 2017[1]) was the fourth President of James Madison University (JMU), having served from 1971 to 1998.
Carrier presided over JMU as it grew dramatically in size and in reputation.
Carrier expanded the grounds of JMU more than 100 acres, and he is largely credited with the vision of East Campus, and the resulting expansion of the university to the eastern side of I-81.
"[3] Carrier was affectionately known on campus as "Uncle Ron,"[4][2] a reflection of his connection with students.
