George Charles Roche, III, president of Hillsdale College from 1971 to 1999, has died at the age of 71. A magnetic speaker and extraordinary fundraiser, he purchased, from Ludwig von Mises’s widow, Mises’s personal library, and established a lecture series in his honor. Dr. Roche was the author of a biography of Frederic Bastiat and several other books; his PhD history dissertation from the University of Colorado took a sympathetic look at the antiwar Old Right.
