Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellows are representatives of various professions who spend a week or more on the campuses of liberal arts colleges helping students and teachers relate education to the needs of American society. Through classes, seminars, and informal discussions, executives of major corporations, diplomats, prize-winning journalists, and others create better understanding between the academic and non-academic worlds. The Program is generously sponsored by the Lake Forest College Women’s Board. Lake Forest College is a private liberal arts institution located 30 miles north of downtown Chicago. The College has 1,250 students representing 44 states and 41 other countries.
