Clarence Isaiah Pontius (1892–1981), more commonly identified as Clarence I. Pontius, C. I. Pontius or Cy Pontius, was an Oklahoma businessman, banker and university president. Pontius was born in Butler County, Pennsylvania. He then enrolled in Ohio State University, graduating in 1915 with a degree in agriculture. Following graduation, he built a career in business and finance in Ohio. He relocated to Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he continued his career in finance. In 1935, the trustees of Tulsa University, then struggling with financial problems caused by the Great Depression, recruited Pontius to serve as president of the school. He remained in that position until he retired in 1958 and continued to serve as chancellor until 1964.
