Though Dean Wormer's power-grab through a "little known codicil" was meant to evoke Richard Nixon, it is not altogether clear that Wormer himself was based on any real person. Chris Miller once noted that "Nixon was Dean Wormer", but only as an emphatic contrast to his real-life dean at Dartmouth (Thaddeus Seymour) not being like Wormer at all. Regarding any other parallels with Nixon, it is worth noting, that almost all the illegal activity depicted in the film, is perpetrated by the Deltas.
