THE 1916 FORESTER Y PRESIDENT JOHN SCHOLTE NOLLEN Few of the freshmen and even upper classmen who come to the President's office to relate their difficulties of registration and to complain that they don't like their rooms or their grades realize how big the man is whose time they are consuming with trivialities. We live in a day of specialization, but here is a man Who specializes not in one thing, but in many, and of the most diverse character. First and foremost the president of Lake Forest College, Dr. Nollen has also the executive cares of the Academy and Ferry Hall upon his shoulders, and he adds prestige to the name of the institution by his leadership in the worlds of education, religion, peace realization, modern languages, and almost inumerable other varied interests. He is a member of many societies for the promulgation of many different things. His name has gone abroad throughout the land, and in every place Where his leadership makes him valued, new lustre is added to the name of Lake Forest. 19
