Biography

Edward "Ed" R. Rooney is the Dean of Students and the main antagonist in Ferris Bueller's Day Off who is suspicious of Ferris Bueller skipping school for the 9th time, so he goes out to catch him once and for all, but then ends up getting humiliated. He is played by Jeffrey Jones. Edward is a merciless, strict, calculating, and scornful member of the staff that is not afraid to go to great lengths to punish (He must have proof in order to do punishments) troublemakers such as Ferris and the rest of the students. He has shown abuse of power (like calling the parents excessively or breaking into a student's house), is callous to the staff/students (it explains why he is despised by everybody except Grace(she tolerates and admires him)), and is quick to anger if he fails a goal he has set for. He has also shown intelligence that matches Ferris’s quick wits when he almost caught Ferris in the act a million times and is a little athletic.
