Nason to Swarthmore

When Swarthmore's beloved President Frank Aydelotte announced last autumn that he would quit to become director of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, it was a good bet that he would pick his own successor. Swarthmore's faculty, alumni and trustees last week elected as president Dr. Aydelotte's assistant, Professor John William Nason, 35.

President-elect Nason is a bright young man. St. Paul-born, he was graduated summa cum laude from Minnesota's Carleton College (1926), studied a year at Yale Divinity School, a year at Harvard Graduate School, went to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. Since 1931 Mr. Nason has taught philosophy at Quaker Swarthmore. He married a Quaker, two years ago became one himself.
