To implement his plan, Gilman work luminaires such as the internationally recognized mathematician James Joseph Sylvester; biologist H. Newell Martin; physicist Henry A. Rowland (first president of the American Physical Society), classical scholar Basil Gildersleeve and Charles D. Morris; economist Richard T. Ely; In 1901, he became the second president of the university and chemists Ira Remsen.
Gilman graduate education and training focused on the expansion of research support. New university scholarships advanced vocational schools such as medicine and engineering fused.
