NoRTHWEsTERN SPECTRUM EX-PRESIDENT H. J. KIEKHOEFER, A.M., PH.D. This year marks the departure from N. W. C. of one who for twenty-two years has guided the progress of our Alma Mater. l-le first became associated with our educational institutions as professor in Union Biblical Institute in l885. Upon the resignation of President l-l. l-l. Rassweiler in ISSS, President Emeritus Smith was again called to the head of the school and Rev. l-l. Kiekhoefer was appointed Act- ing President. Two years later, upon the death of President Smith, he became Presi- dent. Under his administration the College has experienced a steady growth in equip- ment and efficiency. l'lis desire for thoroughness soon revealed itself in an enlarged curriculum so that in a few years Northwestern took its place among the leading col- leges of the land. After twenty-seven years of active service he resigned his position and gave up his college activities at the close of the first semester of the present school year. BISHOP THOMASUBOWMAN, D.D. The resignation of President Kiekhoefer made necessary some temporary arrange- ments, pending the selection of a new president. Accordingly Bishop Bowman, Presi- dent of the Board of Trustees, was chosen to act as supervising President, with Prof. L. M. Umbach as Acting President. Bishop Bowman is the Senior Bishop of the Evangelical Association, and has given many years of earnest and efficient service to the Church. Hence he is widely known and respected among the chief constituency of the College. As President of the Board of Trustees, he has always shown a marked in- terest in all the affairs of the College, and has labored for its advancement. I-le brings to his new position a thorough knowledge of the institution and its needs. May his in- cumbency mark a prosperous period for Northwestern! l 17 J - Y, ,, 4
