Born in Missouri, Cunningham came to Davidson after spending several years in the ministry, including serving as president of Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary. As president, Cunningham was able to expand the endowment to five million dollars, almost double the size of the faculty, and increase the student population from around 160 students to 970 students. Cunningham also spearheaded the construction of several new buildings in order to accommodate the growth in students and faculty.[1] After leaving Davidson, Cunningham was appointed the executive director of the Southern Presbyterian Foundation.[2] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://libraries.davidson.edu/archives/encyclopedia/john-rood-cunningham|title=Cunningham, John Rood|publisher=Davidson College|access-date=2017-07-03}} {{s-start}}{{s-aca}}{{s-bef2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://socialarchive.iath.virginia.edu/ark:/99166/w6q035gt|title=Cunningham, John R.
