Culver’s legendary life-saving, 100 years later

April 16, 2013

- CULVER STUDENTS MADE HEADLINES SAVING 1,400 IN THE 1913 FLOOD IN LOGANSPORT -- AND EARNED THEIR SCHOOL AN ICONIC GATE IN THE PROCESS -

It was one hundred years ago, in March 1913, that two flood-swollen rivers converging in Logansport, Indiana, would ravage the city and threaten the lives of thousands. Converging with that natural disaster was a courageous group of Culver Military Academy cadets and faculty who answered a call for help and ended up saving nearly fifteen hundred men, women, and children, from that inundated city.
