The New Buildings for the College Lake Forest has a prospect of three, and possibly four, new buildings within the next yearg+A new College Commons lor Dining-Hall for menl: at least one new dormitory for men, and new Science Hall. For the College Commons, the students will be beholden to their long-time friend, Mr. Calvin Durand of Lake Forest. The first of the two new dormitories for men will be given by a generous Chicago woman. whose muniticent subscription of S3o,ooo will not only erect one beautiful dormitory. but will leave about S7,ooo towards a second one. Toward this second dormitory three subscriptions of SI,OOO each have already been made by Mrs. Simon Reid and Miss Helen Culver of Lake Forest, and Mr. Thomas Murdoch of Chicago, so that an additional 312.000 will insure its immediate erection. For the long-desired Science Hall, we shall be indebted to that great benefactor of the American Hsmall College, Mr. Andrew Carnegie, who, however, annexes to his gift the wise condition that an equal amount must hrst be raised, the income to be used for the maintenance of the Science Department. The following extracts from a recent article by Dr. Harlan will be of interest: Urdinarily, under the pressure of problems demanding immediate solution, a college gets one building at a time. Its trustees, using their best judgment upon an isolated proposition, make a hurried decision and place the building at what seems to be the best location, uf Mi' f1'11.r. A few years later, in response to another pressing demand. another building is offered and another hasty guess is made as to its location. But, by and by, the point is reached when a new generation, possess- ing fonr or live comparatively new buildings-all of them admirable, but all more or less awkwardly located-wishes in vain that former Boards of Trustees, looking ahead a little, had placed these costly buildings in accordance with some compre- hensive plan, both as to style of architecture and the relative position of the various editices. 'iBut at Lake Forest, the unexpected, and for us unprecedented, necessity of hav- ing to erect three or four buildings, at substantially the same time, has forced our Trustees to take a long look ahead, and to plan ultimately for an institution whose collegiate department alone will contain .too students, in addition to the numbers in the two preparatory schools. 'iTherefore, as far-sighted business men, we propose to have the courage of our dreams, at least to the extent of laying out a general architectural scheme for the future development of the College: and in putting up our new College Commons, two new dormitories for men, and a Science Hall, we shall locate them as a part, and, as we believe, simply the beginnings, of a comprehensive plan, which, though it may take 25 to 5o years to carry out in its complete form, is certain, some day, to be realized. In making this plan the Trustees will seek the help of more than one expert landscape artist as well as regular architects. We believe that the possession of such a general scheme will be a helpful safeguard and a constant in- spiration in the future development of the College. HFrom the nature of the plans for a Science Building, to say nothing of the wel- come necessity-Mr. Carnegie has placed upon us for making a campaign for addi- tional endowment, we cannot hope to begin the Science Building in time for occu- pancy during the next academic year, but we hope to have it ready for use by the autumn of 1907. We shall hasten the erection of the new College Commons and the two new dormitories for men as rapidly as possible. The Trustees are far more eager to begin these buildings than the students themselves, and not a day will be lost un- necessarily. But we wish to be sure we are right before we go ahead, because the erection of so many large buildings will irrevocably settle the lilies along which we shall develop for generations to come. In the meantime, the inspiring fact that we already have the money definitely assured for the central section of a new Col- lege Commons and for at least one new dormitory, will help us to possess our souls in patience.
