History & Leadership

It is impossible to talk about Motlow College without speaking of the Reagor Motlow family from Moore County. The Motlow family donated of land on which the college is built; subsequently, the college bears the family name—Motlow College. Motlow honors Senator Motlow; his sister, Mrs. James Boyd; his brothers, Connor, Robert, and D.E.; his mother, Mrs. Lem Motlow; and his uncle, Tom Motlow for their significant contributions. The family are descendants of Jack Daniel, the original proprietor of Jack Daniel Distillery.

Throughout the college’s 38 years, Motlow has been fortunate to have strong, visionary leaders. Dr. MaryLou Apple, who began her reign in 2006, serves as Motlow’s fifth and current president. Previous presidents include Dr. Sam Ingram, Dr. Harry Wagner, Dr. A. Frank Glass, and Dr. Arthur L. Walker, Jr.
