Dr. DeBow Freed, president emeritus of Ohio Northern University, died on Saturday, Feb. 8, 2020, at his home, the Icon has learned.

He served as president of ONU for 20 years, retiring in 1999. Then, in 2003, he accepted the position of president at the University of Findlay, where he retired in 2010.

The Icon has yet to learn of funeral arrangements and will post those as soon as they are available.
