Nellie Craig Walker

Nellie Craig Walker (1881–1969) was a school teacher and business owner, and was the first African-American student to graduate from Miami University.

Walker was born Nellie Craig in Oxford, Ohio in 1881, the daughter of Jessie Craig and Susan Ross Craig, and the youngest of four children. She attended the Ohio State Normal School (which later became part of Miami University), and graduated in 1905, one of a class of twenty women enrolled in the teacher's program. She died in 1969.

Miami University renamed the former Campus Avenue Building, as Nellie Craig Walker Hall in her honor in 2020.
