John J. Hurley says that his brother's career did not influence his own, but when Mr. Hurley becomes president of Canisius College in July, it'll certainly look like it did. Like his brother, Paul B. Hurley, who is president of Trocaire College—another Roman Catholic institution in Buffalo, N.Y.—John will be his college's first lay president.

The Hurleys aren't the only brothers who are college presidents. There is at least one more set, and they have even more in common.
