Appointed by President Doney in 1910.
Killed in an automobile accident in 1928.

According to the 1930 Murmurmontis, which was dedicated to her:
“Miss Alexander will long be remembered by generations of the sons and daughters of Wesleyan as a woman of strong character, attractive personality and noble ideals. As a librarian through years of faithful sacrificing service, she grandly built her life into that of the institution. As a human being, she ever exemplified the things which are honest and best and pure and upright. The echoes of her life will roll from soul to soul and grow forever and forever.”
