William Harrison Mace (November 27, 1852 – August 11, 1938) was a professor of American history.

Mace was born on a farm near Lexington, Indiana, in 1852. He was the son of Ira Mace and Nancy S. (Johnson) Mace.

He later served as a high school principal in Logansport, Indiana (1876–1877) and Winamac, Indiana (1877–1879). He next taught history in the schools of Cass County, and Pulaski County, Indiana, and at the Indiana State Normal School.[1]

In 1881, he enrolled at the University of Michigan, where he studied history and received his degree with Phi Beta Kappa honors in 1883. While attending Michigan, he played college football as rusher for the 1882 Michigan Wolverines football team.[2]

In 1885, he joined the faculty of DePauw University Normal School, serving as a professor of history from 1885 to 1890.
