Richard Hovey (1864-1900) was an American composer and artist. Graduating from Dartmouth College in 1885, he is known for penning the school Alma Mater, Men of Dartmouth. The Hovey Murals at Dartmouth, a controversial and arguably racist series of paintings that are currently shielded from public view, are named in his honor.
