President Coolidge appointed Roy O. West Secretary of the Interior; West served from July 1928 until before Hoover's inauguration in March 1929.
William John Cooper served as superintendent of schools in San Diego in 1926, and was then appointed by Governor Young to be California State Superintendent of Public Instruction in 1927. He served in that position until February 1929, when US President Calvin Coolidge appointed him to be the Eighth United States Commissioner of Education. He served in this position from February 11, 1929, to July 10, 1933. At the time Cooper served, the US Commissioner of Education was not a cabinet-level position. Cooper reported to the United States Secretary of the Interior.
