02 27       Uncertain Future.  Northwestern College in Watertown, due to observe its centennial in 1964-65, faces an uncertain future as it nears its 100th birthday. Late last year the Daily Times learned that there would probably be major developments affecting the college, with a study being proposed which would, in a large measure, play a part in determining the future of the institution. Any decisions to be made, as a result of the study, will not be made on the local level but will be determined at a synodical conference level. The development since last year’s reports is now in the open. It has been announced that an educational consultant has begun a study of the entire educational set-up of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod which owns, maintains and operates Northwestern College.
