David Starr Jordan was an accomplished biologist, pacifist, teacher, and educational institutional leader.  He is considered one of the major promoters of the eugenics movement in the United States and applied its logic to other social policies such as education, immigration, and pacifism.  Jordan was both the product of his historical context as well as the leader of the eugenics legacy in the US.  As a leader of a wide range of prominent influential institutions from Stanford University to the American Breeder's Association, Jordan's ideas reached extensive groups of individuals.
